Sir Tim misses an important point....

....but what about governmental and political cultures?

I'm thinking about huge databases on internet users collected by the NSA, GCHQ and others, which, unlike Facebook, Google, etc... are COMPLETELY SECRET!!! One interesting report on these unhealthy government and political cultures can be found here:

The STASI is here already, Sir Tim....and it isn't Facebook!
