Many will resist sudden losses of freedoms. Big Brother types typically 
make changes slowly, the frog in the rising temperature pot scenario being 
well known. Sudden changes awaken the masses and revolution is birthed.

I welcomed the Internet as a great democratizing tool, the ability to 
freely exchange words with anyone around the world. Please, one of you 
computer geniuses, explain how any government can control what we send. 
Seems to me that the plethora of spam, not to mention viri, is an example 
of inability to control the cyber waves.
