  3. A bit too excited? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 3 · on The Second Generation Internet
    Well Mr. Katz, I see you have another article where your enthusim abounds, but gets in the way. Alack, I must make a few points ...
    the Internet's most central ideology has been promoting a certain kind of freedom.
    No, the Internet's most central ideology has been promoting a certain kind of information. freedom != information . While, I admit, information should be free, not all agree.
    Many people can't afford it, others don't have the technological skills to use it well.
    The same can be said that many people can't afford a car and that many don't have the skills to drive a car. What makes the net so different though is that many companies provide a "free-ride" (ie NetZero) and software is getting dumbed down. But is this what we want? Do you really want everyone online. Just as you don't want drunk-drivers, mentally ustable, extremley elderly, or blind/deaf people on you highways, do you want child molesters, script kiddies, etc on the net? Be carfeul what you wish for...
    Computing analysts and legal scholars increasingly believe that despite revolutionary advances like OS, the Net is moving away from its founders' vision.
    No, it is getting closer. The original idea was for information to travel cross-country in case of a nuclear war. And I would say it has accomplished that.
    Not one of them - with the possible partial exception of IBM - has embraced or even flirted seriously with an open source model for doing business.
    Is that bad? Everything doesn't have to be OPENSOURCE, GPL, LINUX, etc. And companies other than IBM have tried opensource models (ie OpenDK, OpenBSD).
    Thomas Jefferson wrote passionately about a new kind of democratic culture in which ideas moved freely all over the globe.
    Ok, but lets review principles of governtment Mr. Katz. For a democracy to exist, there must be a leader. As it stands, the net is far far far from a democracy. It is, at best, anarchy in action.

    I must say though, you did do some good research into the great thinkers of America, but you lack a bit in the Internet history.
