As I've said: black market always existed and will always exist. It does not mean government will tolerate it. Well, some governments do, but they don't last long. The problem with so-called “System D” is that it's much, much, much less efficient other approaches. In a world where software must be developed in a darknet not a lot of software will be produced. Take the article you are linking to. "Lagos is a city for hustling," he told me. "If you have an idea and you are serious and willing to work, you can make money here. I believe the future is bright." Wow. The power of “System D”! The world where people steal from legal oil-based economy, waste 90% of resources in the process and still have something to live with. The only problem: all that works only where there are normal economy to plunder. If you want to look on the final of the “System D” triumph then take a look on Baltic states. As long as they had the ability to pillage transit they showed excellent promises. When the "legal economy" contracted “System D” went nowhere as well.
