[QUOTE="Super Kami Guru, post: 815, member: 22"] Yes. Decentralize the internet. It's a scary proposition that so much of the internet's traffic is directed towards only a handful of services and it's a bit scary how much information those services acquire about people who volunteer it to them. I have a Twitter and Facebook account, but I don't actively use them and prefer things like forums for my online social interactions. Also, the obsession people have with social media in general is unhealthy. Checking Twitter every 2 minutes to see if someone has posted something about whatever they've recently posted, or getting genuinely upset if someone doesn't like something they like or post about. It's a ridiculous obsession, and that we're at the point now where we've created a generation that only know this sort of internet, and that have that level of obsession about what people say to each other on the internet, that they're essentially lost when you take their phones away. It's sad, and it's something that really needs to change. [/QUOTE]
