In real life, information does diffuse passively. But handing it over to an online entity seems madness. But by refusing to participate, we become excluded. It looks like it's time for the alter egos of the 50's again. We all have to have fine lawns and buy the latest car and be happy in our jobs. In that case, passive social networking won't disturb us online anymore than it disturbed our grandparents offline. Very, very good points here, Charles.
