I feel like someone trying to get information out in the days of the old Soviet Union

mimeographing machines and photocopy machines were illegal so people had to type out their dissertations for their university professors using carbon paper (reportedly hard to come by!) to get it out to all the parties who had to judge whether it warranted an advanced degree.

When it is made more difficult to get information out, adjustments are made

I actually think the computer age hastened the downfall of the Soviet Union as it would have been impossible to keep information down if the country was to be able to compete in an information-technology oriented world.

Why the new limit on 2500 characters?
