But this started to be destroyed when SCRIBE was developed at CMU, and then was sold to a company. This was very disturbing to a lot of us at many universities, because we saw that this was a temptation placed in front of everyone, that it was so profitable to be uncooperative and those of us who still believed in cooperation had no weapon to try to compel people to cooperate with us. Clearly, one after another, people would defect and stop cooperating with the rest of society, until only those of us with very strong consciences would still cooperate. And that's what happened.
