- simonw 2y agoHonestly, yes it's a bit dystopian that a forum online exists where anyone can post a photo and experts from all around the world will help them figure out the exact location of that photo. Lots of things that exist in our world today are mildly dystopian.
- brookst 2y agoI guess that's the heart of the disagreement -- to me "mildly dystopian" is a very funny phrase. Dystopia / Utopia are extremes; perfect and perfectly bad. If we're calling potentially abusable things "dystopian" then, ok, sure. But then you have to let me call unscented soap "utopian", since it is at least mildly utopian.
