I am in agreement. The web was envisioned as a utopian place where information could flow freely, watering humanity to grow enlightened.

But it turned out that on the web, misinformation is cheaper to produce than true information, individuals—no matter how independently-minded—are no match for corporate and state actors that have vastly more resources and motivation to manipulate, and tribal identity is more powerful than abstract ideals.

What have we wrought?
