And here is the way to convince people: "The Social Network Privacy Mess: Why we Need the Social Web" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=994DvSJZyww&feature=channel ( This can of course be improved) The general ideas should be clear: dystopia: we cannot have all social data centralised on one server. utopia: there is a lot of money to be made in creating the social web, and thereby increasing democracy in the world.
