While this may seem like a radical idea, Srinivasan argues that it could actually be very beneficial for a state. He argues that a network state would be more efficient and would be better able to adapt to change. In this episode we try to explore the possibilities and roadblocks that the network state enthusiasts may encounter in the future.
