In decades there won't be anyone around who remembers when things were different.
We're in an interesting time right now, when at least 50% of people in first-world countries remember a time before the internet (obviously higher in countries with less internet adoption)
In 70 years, everyone alive will have grown up in a world where the Internet was everywhere.

The invention of Gutenberg's Printing Press was massively disruptive of both Europe and the Islamic world and in Europe kicked off hundreds of years of war. Eventually we got used to the fact that you can't trust everything you read on print. Hopefully we'll work something out with the internet as well.
