Great writing Zygar, I think you chart the social, cultural, and technological development of information abundance (or infobesity) very well. Not only that, but you propose a very good solution to this information abundance and contextualize this with the analogous previous development of the printing press. The only thing I would add is that this information overload also fundamentally challenges the biological capacity of the human brain. No technological tool outside of the human body can solve the information abundance that will occur over the next 20, 30, 40 years. Also, welcome to hubski.
