I think right now companies are competing until they’re only 1 or 2 that clearly own the majority of the market.

Afterwards they will devolve back into the same thing search engines are now. A cesspool of sponsored ads and links to useless SEO blogs.

They’ll just become gate keepers of information again and the only ones that will be heard are the ones who pay a fee or game the system.

Maybe not though, I’m usually pretty cynical when it comes to what the incentives of businesses are.

There is a great talk from the Lavabit CEO who discusses what happened to him and his company when they found out Snowden had an email at his company. I won’t link it since it’s YouTube but it’s an hour long but he talks about his experience with the FBI and the courts. You can search for M3AAWG 2014 Keynote, I highly recommend it.
