The video is pretty good particularly where it's most pessimistic.

My prediction:

  It might take a little more than ten years but I'll predict positive
  ID or you're not getting anywhere useful.

And a lot of people here will loathe that.

But you/we had your chance and spent most of your energy rebuking it
and very little proposing and implementing any working alternative.

The BIG BUCK$ (corps, govts, etc) are sick to death of the current
situation and will go along with such proposals. And they have little
to zero interest in the usual arguments against it.

Note: I'm being predictive, what I think will happen, not
prescriptive, what I want to happen.
