Well here I was strolling through my day and to my surprise, it all may be meaningless in a few years. I Stumbled across a fairly frightening view of where the future of the internet is headed. The video below describes the internet of the future as a subscription model much like cable/satellite television where you pay to access different sites in packages and further fees apply when you want to go outside of those access points.
Now, while it is a tad scary, why wouldn’t some company such as Google or Microsoft want to leap at the chance to get into the ISP business and offer unlimited access to larger web? Is this fear mongering, conspiracy theory, or a sign of things to come?
I used the title 'conspiracy theory' but perhaps that's a little too respectful. This is just one of those silly rumours that start up from time to time; and like all 'good' urban legends there's just enough verisimilitude to make it believable.
The internet is already crowded with advertising and the ethos of open source software and information will ensure the internet remains free.
I recognize most of those people. They are nothing more than YouTube spammers and baiters, blabbing about how they rule World of Warcraft on their home made videos. I see them on YouTube Top Viewed videos list all of the time because they get up there by gamming the system.
i certainly dont believe this stuff, i mean, why would all of the providers make a conspiracy? if thats so, i will start my own providing and become richer than google and microsoft
Yeah, that they just happened to choose the particular frame where that massive rack was on display made me pretty suspicious too. I'm no more convinced having watched the clip!
where did these guys come from? the "stereotypical internet user" store?
the ginger guy spat too. kind of more gross than imagining that we're going to go back to living within AOL or something similar. it took me ages to convince my mom we didn't need a safe portal.
