So while history doesn't exactly repeat itself it sure does rhyme a lot. New tech happens, the establishment passes laws to hobble it. That's neat! The reason I don't worry is becuase tech eventually wins out; it's what people want and it's what people do.
There’s nothing new under the sun. Anyone with any unique information ALWAYS tries to maintain control of it, otherwise it loses value. Secrets cease to be when no longer kept.
No matter if it’s news, music, art, literature - whatever.
