I kinda wanna see an alt-history TV show where every technology gets developed but then technology stagnates around the internet era and the internet (in the current form) never gets developed.
What do you think of this type of society?
I think a sort of like text packet-radio of public chatrooms would be so cool as an alternative to the current “internet”. Like a meshtastic sort of thing, and Libraries would have info on how to build them, and some stores will sell them.
So basically like a internet-but-not-really-internet sort of “internet”, and there would be range limited, and you have the option to not pass on messages you deem hateful. And no corporation will control it, no central servers. Less trolling.
Am I making any sense?
The Internet was nice in the begining… But like everything …I guess it’s capitalism and marketing that destroy it.
It used to be an alternative reality of freedom now it’s like a cancer just as much as it is good.
I liked life before in the era of flip phones.
We are all being watched used and manipulated almost constantly now. And I don’t think the trade off is worth it anymore.
You were then too you just are aware of it now.
They could only incept me from the back and occasionally the side of the cereal box back then
And the TV. And remember the radio 😂
