		<description>Unfortunatly it is more and more possible for mob like groups like Anonymous to get some power without dramatically reorganizing themselves.

http://globalguerrillas.typepad.com/ is a good blog that covers the threat of mobs that get more than their fair share of political power because of hyperempowerment.

I think that the danger is real. But I certainly don't hope that the world turns into a anarchy (probably very bloody).</description>

		<description>&#62;So, sooner or later, these mob-like political groups will seize power from democracies.

My immediate gut reaction to this was that Pesce needs to get out into meatspace a lot more often and experience much more of how organizations and large entities actually operate.  I think at any point in which mob-like political groups attempt to gain power, they will very quickly discover it impossible apart from, er, dramatically reorganizing themselves into forms that look a lot like the systems they'd be trying to change.</description>
