Can’t agree. The internet is composed of ultra high speed, ultra cheap plumbing (financed by normies doing their normie things). We piggyback on it, selfhosting our capsules for next to no cost, freeloading on all the wonderful infrastructure. Don’t look at all that is bad about it, don’t participate and it won’t affect you.
Well, I think the deteriorating effect social media and the modern internet has on society affects all of us, whether we participate or not. Russians stole the 2016 election using the internet - it’s not like it didn’t affect people who didn’t use Facebook or Twitter.
Of course there’s a lot of wonderful things as well. I use the internet all the time, obviously. But it would have been fascinating to see what the world would have looked like if the Internet had remained much more primitive and run largely by enthusiastic individuals.
