    It’s a real challenge in large portions of the world. So many national governments are perfectly happy with a corporatized, compartmentalized internet–and willing to pass legislation to keep it that way.

      Indeed. And it’s kinda hard imagining things getting better, since most politicians are corrupt fucks under the payroll of either national or foreign big money. The only hope I have is people’s revolution, Marxist style… but I don’t see it happening anytime soon. Maybe things will turn this way when our climate catastrophe starts to really rear its ugly head, but who knows? It might even go in the opposite direction, with the fascism blight we’re suffering reaching critical mass.
