Pessimistic view: what’s going to happen (presumably already has, or is well under way), is there will be a top tier internet for gov officials and military brass to communicate totally separate (physically) from the lower tier stuff we all know and, um, endure. Basically, a world wide Classified system. It will eventually splinter every damn thing into those that have access and those that don’t, which will flow down to the societal level at some point. When it’s finally found out, it will be too late to do anything about it, and it will be defended as for the “protection” of the peasantry.
