Isn't innovation worth more than the cost of malware, spam, and DMCAs?

Edit: In the late 80s the morris worm was launched from MIT, but the network admins of the 80s didn't overreact like this. I wonder why.

MIT is run by corporate shills now driven by profits, and IS&T is just another bureaucracy with its own interests to justify existence.

Did CIDR even exist in the 1980s, let alone NAT? (They are basically now selling off half of their "Class A" block now to AWS)
