Good article from the telegraph

Soon, the internet will be impossible to control
From big companies to governments, the ability to censor what we do online is about to get a lot harder

This is why a lot of money is going into Big data
Trying to get all that information organized in a way that can be useful
I hope they fail and that 2.0 networks succeed and make it even more difficult to censor the internet the only free method of communication without regulation censorship etc. (Except where the connections are all monitored China DPRK etc. lol)

It turns out the real genius of Bitcoin was not the currency at all, but the way it decentralises everything. Bitcoin works because it creates an immutable, unchangeable public copy of every transaction ever made by its users, which is hosted and verified by every computer that downloads the software. This is called the "block chain".

Indeed.  I can't wait to see what the future holds.  Interesting times lie ahead, as the old paradigms get tossed into the dustbin of history.
