1| The Role of Commentary in Connected Networks (Collective Consciousness) We have a problem where commentary is more plentiful than actual information. This is likely a result of our innate human desire to be part of a group + our desire to mimic/idolize.
2| Anyone commenting about the "impact of information"; whether scientific, political, or gossip, is just a commentator. Commentary is inherently a derivative OF information. Commentary is NOT information. Commentary does not add value to information. It is a distraction.

3| There is a difference between signals and commentary Signals transmit observations to the collective consciousness; they are valuable + essential. Signals are how the collective consciousness can navigate through idea-space. Commentary clogs the bandwidth of the CC network.
