Since my life as a teenager, the advent of social media )and the internet entirely) has been this weird omnipresence.
Often giving me whiplash.
- AOL instant messenger is cool chat with your crush from high-school!
- meeting someone from the internets? Do you want to get murdered only murderers do that.
- You can’t post that to the internet ?!
- I can’t believe you haven’t posted that to the internet !
- Gross why are you talking about social media.
- Gross you don’t have social media.
- I’m above it I don’t take it seriously.
- You HAVE to take social media seriously.
- Omg she had that many fake friends what a loser no real friends.
- omg she only has that little friends online what a loser no real friends.
- Ew she met her boyfriend online.
- He met his wife on tinder isn’t that so weird.
- You sent her a nude photo of your what?!
- I paid rent from the money I made from only fans
The talk around social media, network effects, costs of switching, being locked in, lack of interoperability… fucking DMCA
