В заключительном столетии Земли американцы получили жестокий урок: свободное распространение информации — единственная гарантия против тирании. Угнетённые люди, чьи лидеры ослабляют тиски на потоке информации, расцветают свободой и жизнью, но свободная нация, постепенно усиливающая свою хватку над общением в обществе, начинает стремительное сползание к деспотизму. Остерегайтесь того, кто запрещает вам доступ к информации, ибо в своём сердце он мнит себя вашим хозяином.
— Уполномоченный Правин Лал, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master.
