I don't disagree with you, but I want to play devil's advocate. Unlike water and electricity, the internet is still kind of a luxury. If the electricity cuts out for a couple of days, all of our food rots, and we starve and die. If the water cuts out, we get dehydrated and die. If the internet cuts out for a few days... well.. It'll suck. But nobody will die. If I recall correctly, 60% of the internet's traffic is Netflix, with the remaining diced up between Youtube, streaming, and social media. The internet, as it stands right now, is a global entertainment system. I know we do business on it, and it's a boon for communications, but it's not a life or death thing. Aside from that, I'm actually still on the fence philosophically on whether or not the internet is "good" for humanity. It's allowed huge amounts of misinformation to spread. I think you could pin the spread of anti-vax ideas on the internet. We waste millions of hours playing video games and streaming videos. I am currently bored at work browsing hacker news, so instead of allowing that boredom to force me into improving our app, I'll just sit here quietly until somebody adds a ticket into my queue.
