Great post by David Worlock this. Touches on porn and dark communities of subscription based information. Best lines of the piece though are below:

What we are not getting our heads around is the relationship of the mobile network , mostly owned and controlled by third parties  , and the Internet. It is a real issue , and one that must be tackled before access and tariff barriers become the real issues

Quick Link | Nine Shift : Why We Have a Deficit

The folks at Nine Shift have been consistently brilliant at describing both the problems and their root causes in society. Their book is a great read and I think their solutions sensible:

The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the Industrial Age, and thus its components, are in decline. Here’s an example. The government is funding construction or rebuilding of 10,000 highways, yet driving is in decline.  And since society does not really understand the Information Age, we are not “full speed” in the Information Age either.
