  • That the internet is not a good thing.

    Twenty years ago, even some more, the internet was something that brought me hope for humanity: A democratic network of knowledge open to anyone for both participation and access. I truly expected this to improve the lifes of those in less fortunate countries and backgrounds, and help reduce conflicts between people by understanding each other.

    Yeah, a bit too much “we are the world”, but you read about the pioneers of the internet and this was a shared belief.

    Turns out it was like Cyberpunk, but like boring.
