If they have never fixed a wheel before, they will learn or get somebody else to fix it. People keep saying over and over that the internet is presenting problems that have never existed in society before. This is true. What they seldom say is that the internet also provides exactly the tools needed to fix such problems. The web has matured into a serious tool for many people. Misinformation and predators exist in any social environment- the more impact the social environment has, by nature, the more self-policing it must become. Nobody will trust their business to something as dangerous and fragile as the alarmists say the internet is. Wikipedia does contain a lot of false information, yes. Name any school that will accept a thesis that only cites a single source, and I then I will start to worry about it. I believe any problems that are caused by giving a nation free access to any desired non-private information could be solved by a nation that has free access to any desired non-private information. As for the internet breeding isolation, the One Laptop Per Child project has shown again and again that quite the opposite is true.

Although information on the Internet is far from always accurate, there is also lots of valuable and accurate information and the Internet has the potential of reaching more people than books, libraries or the experts ever will.
