You ever watch interviews of people about the internet when it was first starting to become accessible to people?

Everyone was so optimistic it would unite the world. Bring peace and prosperity. Join minds to conquer world hunger. Homelessness. Cure diseases. Racism and all the other isms would disappear when we could no longer use physical features and physical location to subjugate and divide.

Knowledge and information accessable to everyone would spur more knowledge and advancements.

It was naive. But also. It’s what it could have been. It had that potential once upon a time.
