Andreessen: Bitcoin is like the early Internet

“Andreessen told Sarah Lacy that radical new ideas are a reaction to overregulation already happening. [..] ‘The more people try to add more control, the more it just creates the need for the uncontrolled alternative.’ He went on to explain that if it’s a genuinely radical new idea, it will tend to benefit in the long run by attempts to clamp down on it.  ‘The Internet was a little bit like that in the early days.’ So was the music industry. First there was Napster, then Kazaa, then BitTorrent, then Tor. Each time a regulator went after one organization, another sprung up, a million times worse. ‘Take smart coders, and tell them they can’t do something, and that is very inspiring,’ Andreessen says.”
