You had to make it interesting. No twitter/instagram/youtube feed. You had to dig around for the exiting areas. One thing lost (maybe I am projecting here) is a sense of optimism... and the power of the individual (once upon a time L0pht declared they could take down the Internet in 30 mins) I once thought the information age would have a profound impact on democratic institutions, but this hasn't really panned out. Now the new frontier is being conquered by the State, hard censorship in China, soft censorship in the West (what if my employer reads this? will this get me banned from youtube / patreon / ...)
