All this frankly makes me ambivalent about writing in traditional forms like books or essays. It’s increasingly clear that these are a kind of Industrial Age larping.
The thing that keeps me in traditional forms is mostly lack of skills/tools to go beyond, not sentiment 
We're talking about different things. You're talking about human intent and "good" and "bad" internet futures as though we have a choice about it. We don't. The internet will do what the internet will do. Our choice is whether we go along or not, and my assertion is 99% will.
