I got to see how these tried to work together, when I worked in Silicon Valley in the Nineties. And I could see for myself, what a struggle this was.
Everyone was saying, as loudly as they could "No problem here!" When huge problems were staring them in the face. And they have not gone away.
The basic struggle was this - Data wanted to be Free, but companies wanted to charge for it,
The prime example of this was Facebook, that everyone was using, but was robbing them blind.
Facebook users had a simple solution for this problem - ignore it, and it will go away. If they don't see a problem, it does not exist!
And they elected a President who has the same attitude - ignore the facts, and they will go away!
