Ask HN: Would the Internet change if Bandwidth was Infinite?

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how the internet is changing. It feels like everything online is being put into boxes owned by big companies. And that is made possible by increasing speed access to the internet. I realized I’m keeping way less stuff on my computer nowadays. It’s like our computers are turning into just screens where we access stuff owned by others.

This change is even more noticeable with AI. It’s starting to worry me—I’m scared we might lose the Cool, open side of the Internet, and end up back with stuff like pay-per-view and expensive cable TV.
