Mr. Brin's idea is not going to work...
So John, what did you think of my "Truth Machines and Open Networks"
post (a prediction of how open networks could create absolute truth)?
It suffers none of the problems you associate with Brin's idea - being
"open" has an advantage to any individual (network services, immediate
benefits felt through the network, etc.)
Anyway, what are you hiding?
