Web Inventor issues warnings over its future

First item:
news.bbc.co.uk...

2nd item:
news.bbc.co.uk...

The 2nd item would be more of a worry for me.

Thoughts anyone?

The problem is that they will convince some fools that they can get so much more if they will only pay for it. The World Wide Web has the potential to give the entire world a GREAT leap forward in knowledge if we can keep those greedy, money hungry morons from getting a strangle hold on it.

Yup, no doubt about it.
As soon as any corporation sees a money making opportunity they try to grab it through a process of "reform".
What they really mean is bribing government through lobby groups.
If this is really what's planned then it needs to be stopped, but how?
