very interesting topic.
i agree that knowledge is like a virus. it consists mostly of information, and requires a host to be spread.
apart from that, knowledge is typically considered a good thing, no?
at least in our current, modern understanding.
There's the rub: "good" and "bad" are simply byproducts of knowledge, abstracts that don't pertain to concrete real-world objects. As such, the medium becomes the message: knowledge must be good because it allows us the medium to consider goodness. Of course we think knowledge is good, it's all we've ever known.
It's like making a moral claim about existence: of course we think existence is good, it's all we've experienced, all we can know.
Also: bandwagon fallacy.
