This post would have been interesting if it had been brief and clear.

Your conclusion seems to me to horribly confuse two different things. I share your panic at the overwhelming flood of information. But I can't for the life of me think that stemming it at the source is a good thing. What we need is for that information to be out there, so that institutions and machines can use it for useful purposes. And we need high quality filters that stop the deluge crashing down on the head of innocent net surfers.

Tyler Cowen is one of my filters - he read the net so I don't have to.
