Why does the Internet have (mostly) Free thought today?* It's an
   unlikely source: [1]#librarians * Do you know the Librarian's
   Creed?* Look it up; it's true: no politics, no religion, no
   morals We don't think of them as activists.* But let's say there
   is no longer a need to categorize information; actually, we're
   already here; the Internet.* We have keyword searching and such.
   Let's imagine the need for physical libraries is gone;
   everything is digital.* No more paper.* [unlikely but certainly
   possible; having permanent backup in case of digital failure is
   important but that's another discussion]. So, all information is
   digital.* So then, imagine a politician sways a large number of
   people to democratically decide that a particularly unpopular
   worldview 'needs to be eliminated'. So, the people vote and
   forums and sites are removed from the net because they promote
   the unpopular view.* Then... it's gone forever. Who would fight
   to keep them alive?* The Librarian; no politics, no religion, no
   morals Without a Librarian's attitude in charge of information
   flow... we could be led into a single dominating worldview and
   not even know it was happening.
