215 217 460 | The internet’s problems haven’t changed in 22 years, May 16, 2018


The core concerns that troubled us about our participation in online communities and services in 1996 are basically identical in 2018.

“Arguments continued over the use of technologies such as ‘cookies’ that collect marketing information as people browse the Web,” Also in the “continuing” bucket is the US government’s desire for backdoor access to private data.

“The White House continued to fight the spread of strong encryption technologies for the Internet, backing a built-in ‘key’ for law enforcement and other authorized bodies.”




Chaos = 46. Controlled = 46. Deception = 46. Sacrifice = 46

Data collection, backdoor keys, and user education are as problematic in 2018 as they were in 1996.
