Very good article on the fate of the Net.
Technology, as always, can be used for good or for bad. Look at TV.; a perfect example.
There will also, always be those among us, who are fairly incurious about the world they live in.
Price of the Net is likely to become more of a problem in years to come, as more people are disinfranchized, in quite a few ways.
I believe, if left to grow, in its own way, it can and will become the most important tool for freedom and democracy that has ever come down the pike.
Give it a chance.
The Closing of the American Internet - Newsweek: International Editions - MSNBC.com:

Now that the dotcom bubble has come and gone, is the same thing about to happen to that other American frontier, the Internet?"
