Coming from the perspective of an excited child computer hobbyist in the 1980s and seeing it go mainstream (bigger than anticipated), alot of feelings, both positive and negative. Negative for instance the weaponization and corporate control. But -- overall more positive than negative.
What's funny to me though, we used to have this term "killer app". The specific app that made a platform blow-up..
Well, if you remember the 90s, the killer app for the Internet (we used to use capital I, too by the way) was porn. Clearly.. Porn. That always makes me smile when people get a little too carried away about the net's importance in the world.
