I disagree. IMHO, The digital revolution is already passed us because the technology has already been introduced onto the world, so it's best to get smarter in the art of digital warfare (information warfare).

The whole printed information in the entire world is only hundreds of petabytes.

Digital data easily scales much higher and much more quickly, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(data)

It's just a property of digital memory vs analog memory. Success of the transistor and semiconductor.

The move to digital allows for a lot more places to store content to prevent tampering. Historically, people would just alter books. Consider the Textus Receptus vs the Vulgate.

So how do you prevent altering? Archive it in a immutable blockchain is one way. Or archive many revisions on many sites. Storage is dirt cheap these days.
