When personal web publishing and easy content syndication (and remixing) do become mainstream (and they definitely will), there are some really attractive possibilities for increasing personal liberty associated with these technologies.
It's important to remember that we aren't there yet though, and therefore to be suspicious of the hyperbole of those who have a financial interest in pushing these technologies.
