any good philosophical texts on the state of the internet right now?
You know how there's like World War and shit? You think there ever will be Great Internet War? Will it fuel progress like those other wars did?

The arab spring was originally dubbed the twitter wars by the press. That's because USA and jews used the internet to spark unrest and create revolt.

No. Why would there be? The Internet changes so rapidly.

Anyone that tries to do this outside super vague statements like
>the internet has factions all across the spectrum; it changes very fast!; there's no unifying culture!
Tends to end up looking retarded

there are good philosophical texts on the state of the internet in the 70s (norbert weiner), maybe we'll understand what is happening right now in 50 years
Read something by Sherry Turkle for starters.

The philosophical establishment has accustomed itself to such a slow pace that the internet is still a nonentity for it. On the continent they are still. talking. about. Kant.

the internet itself is such a broad term that looking for philosophical studies about it is just worthless, you can search for texts about memes, youtube, social media, etc but as separate subjects.
start with Dawkings and then move on to random no-names.
