It's hard for me to imagine that some people in the CIA who had firsthand knowledge would be unable to recognize that this would be helpful information for a soldier's death.
To break boundaries interests me. With all the knowledge that is available now in the world it should be accessible to everyone. You can get so much information on the Internet now and yet there are so many places in the world where people just don't have the education.
Whole areas of knowledge and information have been defined into nonexistence because the system cannot know understand control or measure them.
It's clear that people are going to download media files and they're going to talk to each other and they're going to exchange information and knowledge and so forth. So this system logic is basically what you bounce off of.
I was one of the first generations to watch television. TV exposes people to news to information to knowledge to entertainment. How is it bad?
Many people make the mistake of confusing information with knowledge. They are not the same thing. Knowledge involves the interpretation of information. Knowledge involves listening.
If information and knowledge are central to democracy they are conditions for development.
If you desire information on some point of law you are not likely to ponder over the ponderous tomes of legal writers in order to obtain the knowledge you seek by your own unaided efforts.
We give you the facts. I told you information is power - knowledge is power. We can't be in an ideological battle to redeem the soul of this country if we don't have the facts.
People live longer today than they ever have. They live happier lives have more knowledge more information. All this is the result of communications technology. How is any of that bad?
