Information is More Dangerous Than a Firearm

With a firearm, it is possible to kill one, two, maybe even thirty people at a time. Information can bring down governments.

In the Soviet Union, it was a crime to own an unregistered firearm. It was also a crime to own an unregistered duplicating or copying machine. Owning the copying machine was punished more severely than owning a Kalashnikov.

Americans once found that to be amusing.

I suspect that a number of Americans, including those in their government, no longer find it funny.
