We've touched on this in other threads, but I'm now convinced it's the most dangerous thing that's ever been invented and that Tim Berners-Lee, will, in time come to be remembered as the man who invented something that irreparably damaged the world.
On a micro level it's already an appalling thing for the mental state of kids, teens and anyone else susceptible to the narcissistic bullshit companies on it encourage. Higher up than that it acts as a wealth of disinformation which is clearly being peddled by foreign powers looking to destabilise western societies and on a macro level it's being used to perpetrate attacks that (were they conducted in physical form) would be considered acts of war. https://www.theguardian.com/technolo...ck-hack-russia
So how will it go? We may have turned the world into an uninhabitable toxic swamp before any cataclysmic worldwide impact is seen, but my bet would be that we won't have done before the internet gets there first.
