The emergence of data-driven mass surveillance “is threatening to turn privacy into a relic of the 20th century,” says the anonymous YouTube creator known as Ordinary Things. Meanwhile, state-funded troll farms are spreading disinformation and curating chaos on platforms meant to connect us and revolutionize the way we live. Ordinary Things gives an enlightening account of the internet’s strengths and weaknesses, warning that the fight for a free internet is a fight for our collective future.

    All the internet is run through cables owned by people. They are who have allways owned the internet. The fact that society things it’s ownerless is odd.

    Now that you have taken up residence here in the Fabulous world, carve out time for yourself. Anchor a new habit that validates what solitude can give you. It can be as little as a minute a day.

    Catch your reflection and don’t look away. Notice how you’re feeling. Give yourself a few minutes of self-care, where you sit down and soothe dry skin or think quietly while you fold clothes. Spend time outside without your phone. Is the sky empty of clouds today? Notice which plants are bursting and which are waiting to bloom.

    Tune out everything else and tune into yourself.

    Just like everything in the world, at some point some for of regulation will happear, because without it it can be harmful to the innocent or naive, or people might abuse it. We did it with food (FDA), we did it with movies (PG), and soon, sites and even Apps will have somekind of “label” to prevent us from falling into traps. TikTok is already being removed from some goverment smartphones because China’s goverment cannot be trusted not to be tanpering with it, and even THIS platform (YouTube) has already started by separating videos for, and not for, children. A welcomed beguinnig if I do say so myself.

    What major stake of the internet does Bill Gates own? Seeing his photo in the 1st minute of this video with the claim that he owns the Internet has undermined the credibility of what I think he has to say. Should I even watch further…. ?

    12:13 navalny is a ruzzian neo-imperialist influencer, a kremlin agent actor performing a role of pseudo leader of a pseudo opposition. NATO considers him even a bigger danger than ruschists, who are now killing my people and destroying my country if Ukraine.

    Navalny is the enemy of the free world and western civilization as we know it
