Creativity threatened?
It used to be you would have to do someone a favor or know the right person or be related to someone or have gone to right school to get published anywhere. Now it doesn’t matter where you went to school the internet is much more democratic. If peope like your book, music, article, photo, website, serivce, or whatever they will link to you. Think of every link like a vote. Now you can get recognition if you are smart and cognitive cultural syncratisim is limited to what “experts” or censors think you should read or the information or ideas you should have access to.
