"Today they seem largely out of solutions – and instead challenge  
reality
  by seeking to deny a revolution that’s already taken place
  by attempting to use a power that no longer exists,
  by trying to impose on the world a law that is impossible to enforce."

Is Mark Scott talking about:

1) DRM and the music industry.

2) Microsoft and closed source.

3) Newspaper moguls.

4) Anyone trying to box information.

PS: I think 4 is right though Mark doesn't know it.

BTW the quote is from:
