@mcc@mastodon.social the Internet is good ... I don't think it's only the tv people. I think it was the monetization part. Accessibility brought in a lot of people that wanted to use the internet as an appliance which drastically shifted the culture. There's plenty of room on the Internet for that, but where they landed is important. Being beholden to FB now meta for content that was feeding them what drove engagement to serve more ads and hoover up more data. Ads and data brokers are the real evil imo.
