Agreed. But I'm not advocating sticking our heads in the sand. What I do think is that, if we let ourselves get sucked into playing the game by their rules we (the tech industry) will lose. They have more lawyers, politicians, and even law enforcement officers in their pockets than we do. The only way to win is to do what they cannot do: Innovate and build platforms and technologies for sharing information so quickly that it becomes impossible to stop the sea change. If we spend time and brainpower trying to compete in their arena we will get crushed just as surely as they would if they tried to compete in ours.
