I dream of humans one day building a Dyson swarm around the Sun and becoming a Kardashev type 2 civilization. It's a magnificent dream that we probably must one day accomplish or accept extinction.

But that is one serious problem with it. Unless it's managed democratically, one psycho could gain control over all of it, then yeah, they could literally block out the Sun for anyone who won't pay for sunlight.
