Is the internet dead?

It becomes more and more closed-off every year, 99% of users seldom stray from their corporate owner's walled garden. Only consuming content and rehashing stakeholder-friendly material, never creating anything original, doing marketing work for free. Viewing only curated results inside their self-selected bubble. For some people there is literally nothing beyond whatever their provider has zero-rated. The internet is their social network.

how do you use the internet then, fuckwit?

>What happened?

We let normies use the internet. Normies who couldn't handle the hate machine literally invented a social movement out of online bullying. And because normies aren't curious and don't like new or hard things, they all congregate in just a few websites. Eventually all the infrastructure, technology, and talent become just a select few and exist in one place in the country. They all know eachother and they all have the same political alignment. And now we're here:

tl;dr: Activists with deep pockets and the normie herd that support them killed the internet.
>>
commercialization and popularization of things have a way of killing originality

I can't help but wonder if that's a property of consumerism in general, or if it's just internet- and technology-specific.

It's a market dynamic. All innovation starts with enthusiasm and then when the innovation found to be profitable, the innovators are pushed out. The old innovation then becomes a paradigm and newcomers to it have to meet certain criteria and the industry that rises up around it resists further innovation that is not seen to generate profit.
>>
What really gets my goat is that this constant push for profit can't go forever. What's the point of profiting if there are less and less people to profit from?

Or those people have less and less disposable income to spend?

I guess you could just make up a war and inflame racial tendencies across the world to start another culling.....
