This is verging onto old internet nostalgia, and while I agree with the sentiment and love the old internet… it was a trash fire.
And not safe.
Someone vividly this out to me recently, and then I looked though archives of old threads. I was a moron on the internet in the 2000s, more than I realized.
I guess what I’m saying is: yeah, the Big Tech grip seems bad. It is bad. But today’s kids will probably deal with it better than we expect, and whatever kids get into 20 years from now will be unspeakable, I’m sure.
I’m honestly more worried about boomers, who don’t seem to be adapting to this stuff unless they were already IT folks.
