That reminds me of a story.

Once a teacher gave each of his students a tube of toothpaste. He said
"Squeeze all of the toothpaste out of the tube on to your desk." The kids
laughed and did it, making a giant mess and having a ball. When things
settled down, the teacher said "Now put all of the toothpaste back into the
tube." The kids fell silent. A few of them even tried the futile task.

Then the teacher said "The toothpaste is the Internet. Once it's deployed,
it is nearly impossible to put it back the way it was."*

* OK, the teacher said "The toothpaste are your words. Once they come out,
you can't put them back in." Or something. My storytelling skills need
work.
