Is it likely that the Executive Branch would try to exert control over it to remove "inconvenient" data?

Wait til you hear about my local library. You can walk in and read or borrow any book without paying!

Sounds VERY Communist, or Socialist, or some other scary thing. Are you sure it's legal? Why, the AUTHORS and PUBLISHERS are being denied the revenues they would get if you would buy the book; or at least rent it. So, are libraries theft of Authors' and Publishers' renumeration? (And, to think, the richest man in the world at the time, Andrew Carnegie, endowed so many Libraries!)
