Actually, I think that whilst some parts are getting worse - other parts
are getting much better. I'd hold up Wikipedia as a shining example of
how the Internet has become a much better place than it once was. The
idea that the whole of human knowledge would be accessible at the touch
of a button has finally become a reality (or at least we are heading
that way at a rate of tens of thousands of articles per day).

Yes.

The Wikipedia example has value here too. In Wikipedia, there are no
credits. The article on (for example) the Mini Cooper was mostly
written by me - but my name doesn't appear anywhere on the article.
It's a selfless society.
True facts - information - shouldn't "belong" to anyone. We should all
strive to increase the sum of human knowledge without feeling the need
to take credit for doing it. Words and pictures belong to people by
virtue of copyright laws - but the facts behind those words need to
be 'free'.
