Yep. the moment the internet stopped being about sharing information and became about making money and controlling populations it all went downhill.

- ephbit 5y agoAs every aspect of the world that humans interact with, the internet too is shaped by all interacting people collectively. Some sites that are heavily used by people have grown away from their original purpose toward simply generation revenue for shareholders. Google was once a handy search tool, not a data collecting/selling platform. I rarely use Google anymore and many other people too are fed up with services based upon shady business models. Facebook is seeing a decline in its number of users .. such exoduses have all the power that's needed to transform even the biggest companies. The internet is full of striving communities of those who turned their backs on shady business models. I believe that this striving portion of the internet will always exist. Only its size will simply depend upon how many people decide to stop feeding the hoarders their data.
