You make a valid point here that I think folks should remember no matter what changes new technologies or regulations bring:
Every time the walls come down, or barriers move, or access becomes easier and more democratized, new walls and barriers pop up elsewhere because — for better or worse — cultures and economies need gatekeepers as both tastemakers and flood protectors.
But good stories that resonate with audiences who get excited to talk about and share them because they tap into something real and true are going to be in demand for eternity. How and where we do this will always change with the tech and rules of the time, but what won't change is why.
