The number of cyber attacks on major corporations and government infrastructure went parabolic in the last couple of years. Microsoft, UK Royal Mail Service, Pipeline, major banks, social media platforms and even military equipment.
Any large scale attack on social media, substack, patreon, facebook, twitter, cloud services etc.. where people subscribe using credit card or thru a 3rd party pay site would scare the spit out of people and the internet would become a ghost town if identity, private information and financial information were accessed . Governments and big tech have been unable to defend from egregious attacks by "foreign" actors.
I don't believe this to be fear porn because we have the track record and it's nothing new. This has been an issue for 30 years
A timely article on addiction and awareness! The hypnotic power of the backlit screen has been leveraged for centuries, starting with the Catholic Church's stained glass. Phones, computers and TVs are just the modern version. Plus, now we get to have the added entrainment frequencies that John Lilly and Adam Trombly discovered were being broadcast through the power grid itself. Fun times!
A wise reflection on a potent drug. It's a big part of my day. Luckily I didn't grow up with the internet, so I know I can live well without it. Countless people lived well without the artificial conveniences of the last 150 years. (Even though medical advances have saved and lengthened billions of lives in modern times, the quality of life beats the length always.) Being before having.
Frightening on too many levels. I think I will "try" to go back to more (physical) book reading today. Thanks for this reminder that we are totally dependent on and stuck in the matrix. Thanks a lot.
