[edit: i was wrong; it wasn't bradbury, i'm remembering the asimov work you mention - an excellent story, i agree] but it ignores the existing power structure.

[edit: i was wrong; it wasn't bradbury, i'm remembering the asimov work you mention - an excellent story, i agree] but it ignores the existing power structure. everyone knows that banks screwed up - but who is in jail? same thing goes here: it won't be an equaliser; only the little people will be punished. most people won't be using their viewers to avoid a war, they will be watching infotainment on 3d tv. if you don't explicitly challenge the existing power structure you implicitly strengthen it.
