#12Yeah, and people used to think that the World Wide Web would make nation-states irrelevant and usher in a new era of unprecedented individual liberty and enlightenment. That obviously didn't happen for anybody but the very richest among us. Nothing this guy is saying seems implausible, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Might just not have waited long enough. States are usually at their most repressive right before failing, because they become insecure about their power and take overt actions that engender discontent (where they might normally have relied on soft power) because the alternative is non-existence.

#13It's probably important to point out that this is talking about Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) rather than Open Source Software.

No it isn’t. Did you read the article?
“So what exactly do you mean by open source everything?
“We have over 5 billion human brains that are the one infinite resource available to us going forward. Crowd-sourcing and cognitive surplus are two terms of art for the changing power dynamic between those at the top that are ignorant and corrupt, and those across the bottom that are attentive and ethical. The open source ecology is made up of a wide range of opens – open farm technology, open source software, open hardware, open networks, open money, open small business technology, open patents – to name just a few. The key point is that they must all develop together, otherwise the existing system will isolate them into ineffectiveness.”“

That does provide a measure of hope, but only a small one. Repressive states may fall, but new states always rise in their wake and eventually become tyrannys in their own right because even if people learn from history there's a defect in human nature that makes people yearn for the yoke. It's as if people want to obey an authority figure because it gives them license to stop thinking for themselves and just go with the flow.

His death by COVID-19 is just a cover-up for being moved into the Mars colony via https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_3
