Iirc they were reconstructing shredded Stasi documents, and found that a bunch of dedicated people could do a pretty good job, treating it like a jigsaw. But it only took one or two people deliberately muddling things up to make the others give up.
So if we've got big ABNIs muddling things up, the web is going to be pretty much destroyed in fairly short order. If we're lucky, they're going to make a big enough mess, quick enough, such that they'll go bust and disappear off the scene. The worry is they'll just become false prophets and conspiracy theorists, on a large enough scale to truly mess things up right royally.
Cheers,
