The internet is a series of closed networks, allowed to be joined together. "They" don't have to create it, it just is that way. Now, you can create an exclusive country club of a network that only the chosen few can access. So then where does a poor boy fit into this? Why he'd be serving drinks or tending the grounds...what is the internet equivalent of serving drinks? Maybe writing the code or maintaining the servers / networks...hey then it will be a poorboy's honeypot for the rich maybe, see what they get up to in thier exclusive domain...someone's got to do the work to keep it running and maintain the data.

Interactions will occur in an intermediary zone, like the opposite of a DMZ, a place where everyone’s ambassador-bots can test each other, negotiate and settle differences without inflicting the conflict on their own civilian populations.

Interactions will occur in an intermediary zone, like the opposite of a DMZ, a place where everyone's ambassador-bots can test each other, negotiate and settle differences without inflicting the conflict on their own civilian populations. A virtual Middle East, if you will. Personally, I wouldn't (see #1). But the thing is, there'll be fucking millions of these interaction zones implemented for different purposes and available to different customers. It's gonna suck awesome. 1) Fibre optic, meet shovel.
