I predicted this happening a bunch of years ago. The internet is dying now that the ultra big players are in the game. All the middle east countries have their own censors, Russia has taken full control of all entry points, China has the Great Firewall, UK wants to be "the safest country online". People are happy to live in bubbles. Luckily, the internet is impossible to completely segregate so you'll still be able to do anything that you want just with roundabout ways.

>can't compete with china so we just made great firewall of china 2.0 gotta love the united states of paranoia. If we're lucky the internet will die quickly and new communication networks will pop up in the years to come to replace it. But then again, we're probably just fucked. >>954 >people are happy to live in bubbles This is what happens when normalfags take over.

>>953 While I wouldn't have a problem with blocking out Chinese apps from the App market, give the government more fuel to do things like this and they'll come back for more. It'll be Chinese Apps now and before you know it, they'll eventually start blocking websites they don't want you to see the next time around. >>954 >The internet is dying now that the ultra big players are in the game. This. The internet is becoming one big garden whose content is becoming increasingly curated by big tech. And on top of that, Congress doesn't know how to regulate big tech. Big tech like Google, Amazon, Uber, Apple, Microsoft, and the like has become the 21st century equivalent to the Rockefellers, JP Morgans, Lehman Brothers, Rothschilds, and bankers/industrialists that dominated their industries. >All the middle east countries have their own censors VPNs are popular in the middle east for a reason. Only country that I think from that region that's fully isolated from the world wide web is Iran taking after Russia in that regard. >Russia has taken full control of all entry points Not that different from China at this point though I hear of Russians occasionally bypassing censors with Tor by using bridges though I'm not sure how safe that is with Deep Packet Inspection becoming increasingly employed. >China has the Great Firewall AKA the worst place you can live in. Its 1984+Brave New World minus the orgies, and soma. >UK wants to be "the safest country online" They need to try harder Australia is beating them to it >Luckily, the internet is impossible to completely segregate so you'll still be able to do anything that you want just with roundabout ways. Agreed though only tech savy types will survive this. Rest of normies will live on as if nothing happened not ever knowing on what they are missing out. Creepy shit. >>955 >If we're lucky the internet will die quickly and new communication networks will pop up in the years to come to replace it. Aside from decentralized and anonymized networks, the internet itself as means of communication is as good as it gets. We either got to defend it or find ways around censorship ourselves and preserve and archive content for future generations. >But then again, we're probably just fucked. Yep look at what they are working on, looks appealing to Big Tech and government. https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/12310746/elon-musk-neuralink-brain-implants-hacked/
