- Someone 4y ago#1: “In a future where digital assets are worth not $10 or $20, but hundreds or thousands of dollars, ownership that survives a company becomes an essential substrate of commerce.” That would be quite a change from the future from the earlier internet, where digital assets were free to copy for all. I don’t think I look forward to that newer future (but then, it shares the “not everything is free” with the earlier earlier internet of Ted Nelson. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Xanadu#Original_17_rules https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Xanadu#Original_17_rul...: “9. Every document can contain a royalty mechanism at any desired degree of granularity to ensure payment on any portion accessed, including virtual copies ("transclusions") of all or part of the document.”)
