Open Systems Beat Closed Systems

TPP is out now.

I see it as Walled Garden closed protective commerce system for those inside the garden to play a game of Business Commerce which is pretty much a universal system game.  Somebody always wants a monopoly in business.  The upper hand as a business entity or conglomerate by virtue of their own design of the system, its rules and operation. 

The Internet is a universal relatively open system encompassing economic commerce and a whole lot more.

I think that TPP has to, or at least attempt to, take full control of the commerce aspect of the Internet/WWW as a carve out that it will control by its rules, at least among the players and if there are enough of those in the Garden with their power if not numbers then the match goes to TPP.

Wait.  The Internet/WWW is seeing itself as a system that is bigger more encompassing than Finance and Commerce?

A challenger?

Of course China would latch on to the Internet as the counter to TPP.

The only thing that China has to do is comply with the open nature of an open system that is founded on freedom of entry, freedom to play, reduction of control by special interest.  Small price to pay in granting some of that to its citizens because that is how the collective citizens of the People's republic win?

It all depends on who the government is working for.

Good observations here on the Internet of Things as a Citizen Web



The reason for being of the Internet/WWW is not business component of Commerce? 

Economic Commerce is a component of the Internet/WWW.

Which bigger system owns the smaller system?

The battle lines of Tech and Finance are being drawn.
