@starsandrobots it feels *much* more centralized to me: twitter/medium vs individual blogs, for example.

@avibryant@starsandrobots The internet is basically a way to get onto Facebook now. But, a lot of the content on FB is links to the web. -
@flipzagging@avibryant I mean for us in the West, yes. Another major point of fragmentation globally. -
@starsandrobots@avibryant Is it just the West? Sorry for no citation, but read an interview w/Cambodian, said she used FB, not the internet -
@flipzagging@avibryant oh yeah, the facebook/Telenor stuff in southeast asia is super interesting here too. -
@flipzagging@avibryant West is then the wrong word though, you're right - though hard not to think of it as tech of the west.

@starsandrobots Centralized. Facebook. -
@rezendi@starsandrobots yeah, this isn't even a question. AWS for hosting alone would be sufficient.

@starsandrobots more centralized in terms of services. More separated in terms of algorithmic echo chambers.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@starsandrobots fragmented in terms of standards and technology, but centralized in terms of services. So pretty much worse of both worlds.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@starsandrobots If it weren't for NAT, the edge would be much more distributed. IPv6 has not meaningfully materialized. -
@starsandrobots NAT as well as asynchronous home connections were pushed by entrenched vested interests concerned about competition & piracy

@starsandrobots what's been the change in the number of owners of ipv4 blocks? -
@starsandrobots could also look at the number of network interconnections over time

@starsandrobots Windows & OS X ship with IPv6 on by default; but it still seems wiser to disable it in most cases. Few serve from home. ;-/Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
