- fulafel 9y agoIt's easy to see how "the Internet would become a noticeably nicer place" could be true while "some of the world's [previously] most popular services would operate" could be false at the same time.
- beagle3 9y agoThat’s a cousin of the broken window fallacy, I am not sure it has a name, though. How would the horse merchants operate if everyone used cars? How would window fixers survive if there were no stones being thrown?
