    /g/, how would you change/improve the internet?
    I just watched this TED talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8ofWFx525s&feature=player_embedded) and it's made me think even more about where the internet is headed.

    I think it's become very centralized what with facebook and google having consolidated themselves as two staples of the vast majority of people and those two have become way too large.

    As for 4chan and other image boards, other forums, bulletin boards, etc. I feel like they've stagnated. They're the same today as they've been for the past 10 years.

    moot I feel is just an immature weeaboo with something that grew too fast and too large for him. Canvas is a joke, it's only interesting if you're 13.

    So I don't know. How do you feel about the internet, 4chan, facebook, google, torrents, usenet, games, whatever. What would you like to see in the future? What changes would be good?

    the future is in the darknet.
    i2p + freenet + tor deepweb.
    if only more people went to the darknets. that will soon change.

    Just google all of that.

    See, funny how we say 'google' for a search nowadays.

    what you wrote is about it. I am happy that facebook at least isn't time warner, or google. at least their rules are acceptable

    >>17523225
    in a world where most people are lazy and can't even re-install windows this is more of a philosophy

    I think the fact that these are slightly obscure means that it would keep out the people who "are lazy and can't even re-install windows" and would actually be beneficial. Just look at 4chan, look at reddit, look at digg, they were all better earlier on and now they're overrun with "normal" or "casual" people who really ruin the overall quality of these sites. So I think obscurity is good. Kind of like Eternal September.

    >>17523358
    It's good in that sense, but when you're anti-issue and all you get to see is anti-issue content (confirmation bias) and nothing pro-issue, you'll get to start having problems.

    You have a point there. The reason I answered this way is that I felt OP was interested in the mainstream direction the internet is headed to.

    It does make sense to not go by that.

    yes, as long as we get enough interesting people to the darknets, they don't need a broken percentage of media coverage.

    there isn't that much you could "make" it that way, though.

    That TED talk remind me of dystopian Sci-fi books like The Giver and Fahrenheit 451. To keep people happy and see what they want, they filter more important news that might make people unhappy or if it's irrelevant to their interests.

    That's not the point. The point is the over-centralization of the internet how big some corporations have grown

    That just makes Europe even better.

    Thanks for pointing out that it was an obvious shoop. Really good contribution.

    The internet used to be in a decent place when people
    weren't mass communicating, and those who knew
    what they were doing were communicating with each
    other, and those who weren't were on AIM or some
    other shitty instant messenger to just talk with each
    other.

    Now everything is talked about, including 4chan
    and anybody who wasn't here before is now a
    bunch of dipshits who look at us all weird. For fucks
    sakes, when you say "4chan" people always think
    >>>/b/
    which is not all of 4chan as there's like 25 other
    boards to browse.

    A lot of the internet has become overrun with the
    major internet websites, such as the one's in your
    picture OP. Does anybody remember Netscape?
    Didn't fucking think so, because they got bought
    out by AOL and then they ended up going to shit.
    Netscape got out when they could, and now all the
    other social networking sites are hidden out there
    with no recognition thanks to constant talk about
    facebook and twitter from these new casual users
    who weren't part of the original elite and now the
    internet has become crap, because they're now
    hooked on shit like facebook or other website
    designers who exploited them for viewership on
    their own crappy website (thank goodness most of
    these are gone now)

    the problem after that though, was that soon after
    people who were at the bottom of the original elite
    were really fucking excited acting like little girls
    playing with their pricks, and it got bad to the point
    that they showed everybody the stuff of the original
    elite as computer nerds, but then the cool people
    got to find out, showed the social world all the shit
    and now here we are...

    the deepnet is where they say many of the original
    elite have gone...

    that is because all of us didn't qualify for special treatment concerning the egypt thing. maybe we could do the same googling for electronic products, for example?

    It's not a shoop. He just replaced ``Gay porn'' with ``Europe'' after searching, and cropped out the address bar.
