The internet gave every single person on Earth access to all of MIT's lectures for free and I think most of us would agree that it hasn't made us that much smarter. I don't think the main problems and solutions here are technological.

My big take on the newbies commenting on soccer laws is we should ignore anyone who calls it “offsides”
