Yeah, and the only reason the internet is as free as it is comes from the fact that it is fairly unregulated for content and the sources for information it contains are not all centralized and controlled by major corporations just yet.
We can enjoy it while it lasts.
Big business was also behind buiding out the network we now enjoy but since their main concern was connection fees other corporate entities also got bit in the a$$ by this development due to digital piracy.
You gotta love when major government and corporate projects accidentally benefit the little guy. Its kind of like how GPS, designed to blow up people more accurately than even before also benefits the little guy trying to find his way to a certainl locatoin on the planet.
All I can say is don't confuse government and corporate largesse with egalitarianism
