    The problem is that while we have infinite information we do not have infinite energy/resources yet. The shift when we get it to remove power from the structures will be larger but reminiscent of the piracy/copyright battles lately

      we do not have infinite energy/resources yet.

      And we never will. At least not in the hands of the general public.

      It’s FAR to dangerous.

      We absolutely have enough to shower every single person in lavishness. Its just not distributed. We arent post resource, but we are posy scarcity.

        You’re confusing wealth with resources. If we evenly distributed wealth everyone would be wealthy but it turns out farmers would still have to farm etc.

        We don’t have the resources to give everyone on earth a palace. We don’t even have the resources on earth to give everyone a western lifestyle sadly.

        Infinite resources/energy is waaay past what you’re thinking. Think startrek and replicators
