IN this time in which we find ourselves, an extraordinary evolution of information exchange is taking place all around us. As the thinking machines we construct become faster and our micro-super computer chips get smaller, we, the youth, who have for our entire lives been witness to this totally unprecedented progressive cultural change, must not be fooled into thinking that we shall be properly served by the mandates created for us by the already dangerously overgrown corporations that stand for nothing in this world except for greed, deceit, and the indefinite and exponential increase of profit. No, we, the youth, who are the first of our species to be born and raised against the backdrop of an era that is filled with the amazing technological advances we see today must not bow and be controlled by the advertising and media companies that make us their constant targets. We must not allow the policies of the internet, our new highly relevant information forum to be invented and regulated by an outdated and unsympathetic judiciary system that cares only for the corporate bank accounts and not, as they say, for the good of the people. We must allow the evolution of the Internet to continue unhindered and accept the inevitable changes this will bring to our way of life and our thought processes.
We must recognize that the ability to know everything that is known has come within our reach. The Internet is a sharp and shining molecule consisting of concepts, ideas, facts, and endless variations on human meaning and truth. It has penetrated each of our minds with the understanding that we need not go further than the internet in our search for nearly any type of information, relevant or otherwise, and will inevitably lead to the understanding that continuous and constant contribution by each one of us to this ultimate and inorganic collective consciousness is not only necessary, but inevitable and extraordinarily exciting. OKAY!
