Whereas the internet has allowed an explosion of capitalism and production, along with allowing many people to skirt onerous government regulation, the writer seems to see this as the path away from capitalism. The only issue is of information, which I grant in many cases can't be protected.
If Marx imagined a world where information and automation rule, then I haven't given him enough credit. I imagined Marx as an idiot who didn't understand the most important of market forces: Incentive.
