"I wonder if we’ll see a day where it’s no longer hip to use the public internet"
Replace hip with sane and we can accelerate the transition back to offline content (one way communication) and come to the conclusion that a two-way stream (a direct connection) to crazy is not healthy.
- Nasrudith 7y agoThat wouldn't be healthier - I would be unhealth manifest in the same way not being able to stand up under their own power. Even if a one way digest or hierarchical approach works better in an instance for a scale approach (summarizing to congress or instead of a live feed of literally everyone) a lack of agency is /not/ a good thing. Sanity is acknowledging reality not hiding away from it.
- aSplash0fDerp 7y agoSomebody needs a hug. It was not off topic... "Curated by Crazy" may have better explained the current power struggle online and how low they'll go for your attention (hijack your connection). How is packaging data in offline formats not more convenient? We have to do something with the gobs of storage and blazing fast transfer speeds while reclaiming our privacy (maintaining control of our attention). Also, being "always on" allows you to be compromised by netizens far and wide. On-demand has far reaching security benefits.
