This thread is somewhat reminiscent of the "Television is a Vast Wasteland" speech given by Newton Minow, exploring the then new frontier of television and the responsibility of the broadcasters.

Perhaps it really is time for a dialogue about what direction we really want this new internet frontier to head in. Minow was right when he said that the public interest isn't always just what interests the public. There is a deeper responsibility to guide a new medium of communication, allowing it not to work within the confines of it's predecessors but to expand to it's full and right potential. This will take very serious discussion and ultimately the same vigilance that we use to protect and explore all things that are important to us as a people.
