The Path To Censorship

I bought a copy of Ayn Rand's Capitalism: The Unknown Idea and read "The Property Status of Airwaves" last night. It was writen in 1964, and Ayn Rand is a visionary. A couple of paragraphs are worth quoting:

...If censorship and the suppression of free speech ever get established in this country, they will have originated in radio and television.

True.

And as a sign of the 60's:

The breach between man's scientific achievements and his ideological development is growing wider every day. It is time to realize that men cannot keep this up much longer if they continue to retrogress to ideological savagery with every step of scientific progress.

I wonder what the gap is now in the year 2004?
