I read the headline without knowing what the article was about and went "yeah that sounds about right". Then I read the article and had the exact same reaction.

This is concerning to read. To think that everything could just vanish. Internet is part of history and culture and it makes me very sad when people just want to see it disappear.

as a good friend who goes by gilles deleuze said, there are often not bad answers but bad questions- being 'online' must be thought in its context and examined from a personal lense. its not secret tech companies are developing drugs in chocolate and fizzy drink like techniques that are: making people paranoid(conspiracy theories, scared of each other) over stimulated; regurgitaters; fascist; thinking thir opinion matters and should be shared;short attention span havers and losers to the trees outside. personally, i like the net and try to be online in not an 'ethical' or 'morally right' way, but a way that lets be in nature knowing i am in nature- meaning one should opt less for a phone in their hand that puts the whole world comfortably in the pocket but a cloggy loud computer that remidns them of the infinite nature of life and how a beautiful pc puts them online.the internet is mostly demonic and ig jesus didnt go online or anything but perhaps omnipotence is like the world web. idk.

One of the few apps with no ephemeral "story" feature or whatever so you don't need to check it every 24 hours. Cherish this.

It's just like John Swartzwelder said:
"Since writing is very hard and rewriting is comparatively easy and rather fun, I always write my scripts all the way through as fast as I can, the first day, if possible […] Then the next day, when I get up, the script’s been written. It’s lousy, but it’s a script. The hard part is done."
