"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Internet Freedom Fighters Build a Shadow Web
Excellent, in-depth article about the early stages of what will become an essential part of any future displacement of government and corporate control over information and communication. Like most technology, it's cumbersome and flaky in its early stages, but will roar to life and ubiquity when it's needed.

Not much of an article, hardly worth the 55 seconds needed to read it. I spent more time looking for a (non-existent) link to the alleged shadow web project.
If I had known it was a "Scientific" American article, I would never have clicked the link. SA articles are invariably inaccurate and out-of-date long before they are published, which is why I stopped my subscription decades ago.

It practically stops in mid-sentence. I got the feeling that a subscription is required to read the whole article.
