Thoughts?
Some of the article
The internet was designed to be resilient and decentralized. Its multiple, redundant pathways between any two network nodes and its ability to accommodate new nodes on the fly should enable it to keep carrying data in the face of blocked nodes, censorship from repressive regimes or natural disasters.
However, its implementation has far diverged from its original design, with ISPs now holding the reins of the highly-centralized platform into which the internet has evolved.

Exactly, there will always be ways around it. It may not be the best thing but still won't have to deal with the government.

I have more bad news for you. IPv6 is a whole new ball game.
http://www.ipv6.com
IPv6 is designed to track any node, instantly and it is much harder to be anonymous. In fact, via Mobile IPv6, and RFID tag that comes within range of an IPv6 wireless router, will call home and report its location.
