No, you're being ridiculous. I'm pointing out the reality that this view is unrealistic in multiple ways, it is no proxy. It speaks for itself, really. We have not had any technology as reliable as is claimed so I think it's a little naive of a view, especialy in any time frame remotely related to "changes are coming." As well, the issue of how this is going to get paid for is a real issue for the reality based community. :)
When my dad was my age, a statement like "The entire global economy will soon be managed by a publicly-accessible world-wide computer network" would have seemed similarly ridiculous. Computers are way too slow for that.
The problems we have now will be fixed in ways we haven't yet thought of. We will have new problems, but not the ones we're thinking of. Fundamental changes are always coming.
