You morons. That's not what the f'n "Dark Web" means 😳 Geez have we _really_ become so dull that we don't even know how to use terminology properly?! 😡

@prologic Don’t ya know? Dark web just means anything the governments can’t track your every move with. 😉
@brasshopper @prologic I read something years ago online that says we all should do a thought experiment. When reading a newspaper, we might see on one page something about a domain we are an expert in. We'll instantly think "this is complete bullshit, and wrong in every way". But then we'll turn the page and read something we know much less about, and take the article as scientific fact.

My take away is that basically all of mainstream news/media is entertainment, and not actual news. I ignore most of it.
@markwylde I agree 🤣 I _mostly_ read or pay attention to very few sources of "news" and mostly only for the commentary (_which are often hilarious_) 🤣

@markwylde @prologic I heard another piece of advice. Don’t pay attention to the news very much. Learn history instead. Then occasionally look at the news for its own larger trends (multi-year narratives). And sadly this “conversation” around privacy is all too consistent with some historical trends and it certainly has been a background narrative for almost a decade—it’s not very entertaining.
@markwylde @brasshopper Yup agreed! 👌 The privacies we’ve all so easily given up over the last decade and a half is absolutely horrifying and something we need to reverse really quickly before it’s all but too late 😥
