This touches on the age old of problem of if you have police (moderators), who polices the police?

Ultimately this is solved by having elected representatives and putting the power back in the peoples' hands. And how do we elect globally? Does this come under the UN? I doubt few people would be happy with that scenario.

I always find it such a dichotomy that the Internet was established for knowledge sharing and education. Unfortunately today, there is a proliferation of mis-information and eroding the critical thinking that underpins a successful education.
