There is now a far more serious question...what is defined as "legal and non legal"??

Right now there was an recent estimate of 43M twitter bots out on the net and know one knows who controls them....

Far more interesting is who controls these botnets and for what purposes....

I would though TTALLY agree the current internet as it stands today 3/4/2017 is in fact a "failed state"...for every single "legal" business model...you will find a "illegal business model of the legal version"...that was not the case five years....
If we accept the premise that information can be "weaponized"...THEN we must accept the premise that the internet of 2017 is in fact the "weapons system delivery mechanism" of choice for 2017...
