One specific short rec on reading that is related, this 10 minute read. Essay on Cooperation (pg 67) is good foundation for why the p2p utopia is real. Don't feel obligated to read (I don't read half stuff I say I will on here), but here's a link if interested (good book overall, full of playful subversive humor)
