Oh, I spare many thoughts for the future. I've just learned to filter them through a reality lens. If I didn't, I might have been crippled by terror at the notion of killer bees travelling up from Mexico for the last 40 years or so.
A future where angry twitter mobs control the dispensation of world knowledge and determine who does or doesn't get to publish books or express ideas is not a notion I think warrants much fear of coming true.
