Quoting: BOWMANAnyone can post virtually anything in cyberspace. This is good. You see the difference? ------ The internet is heavily 'influenced.' How about that? soon to be completely controlled. I see little difference. If it's influenced properly (which it's pretty much there now), it is the same as being controlled...even if you think 'we' control it. We don't.

Sorry, we are being controlled more than ever...we just think we aren't. It's a perfect plan. Last Edited by ToyTV on 10/26/2010 11:57 AM |

(OP) User ID: 727691 United States 10/26/2010 10:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | why bother doing it now? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 992769EMP will wipe out the internet shortly enjoy it while it lasts There is just very little that I need from the internet. I'll access 'that stuff' by Nov 1...then I'm out... The internet is never going away...until all other things go away. They will just gradually condition people to accept the 'new internet.' This is already as good as done. Last Edited by ToyTV on 10/26/2010 11:59 AM |

User ID: 572408 Netherlands 10/26/2010 03:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | you're absolutely right about internet being 'the new tv'. I understand totally what you mean and have been thinking for a while about quiting too (apart from e-banking) but... I wóuld miss the music I download and listen all the time... or wouldn't I...?

Quoting: R...It depends on the music...but I would say you will not miss it. Music is just another form of mind control. At least stick with instrumental music if you can't let go of all of it. But, I'm not even fully convinced that instrumental music is completely safe....still better then the other for sure. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1139127 United States 10/26/2010 04:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The last TV I owned was more than 10 years ago. I went in favor of print and the 'net, cooler mediums in the sense of allowing more thoughtful analysis I thought. Now IMO the 'net has become ubiquitous, a cash cow, and the mis and dis info put forth has morphed into an art form almost. Plus, it's a huge, engulfing time sink. One of my dearest old friends, and mentor, was a man who lived in a very remote part of the world. He read no newspapers, had no radio nor TV let alone a computer or net connection. Yet he was the most informed person I've ever met, saw the big picture clearly and was never confused by the daily scuttlebutt or the bread and circuses. I support your decision OP, I want to move in that direction as well. |
