Computers are fine. It’s the internet that was a problem. Some will say social media, but newsgroups were the social media of the day. If the internet remained too difficult for stupid people to access, there’d only be a small number of people poisoned by bad information and they could be safely ignored, just like in the 90s.
It’s why I say as a software engineer: computers were a mistake.

Nah, man, based on the stories my parents told me from the 70s and 80s, computers were a mistake long before the Internet.
It was as soon as the devices got in the hands of people who couldn’t program that things got bad
A million years ago some asshole fish decided to crawl on land and now I have to deal with IT problems.
