Okay, maybe so, but we're still talking computers and digital
communication---and who has the upper hand in that? Answered of course:

Precisely. The advantage is for those guys, it ain't for us. Sure it
might "trickle down" as they say, but they're always one step ahead as
they own/run/control this stuff which means they'll still have the
monopoly on surveillance, eavesdropping and control of networks with or
without fancy new tech. This is what I mean about more of the same. More
technology does not/will not/cannot solve the problems that technology
creates. Go Einstein! "We cannot solve our problems with the same
thinking we used when we created them."

Best,
