[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 398047, member: 8"] It could also be an era kind of thing, and wonder if the next wave of internet users will be equally susceptible to internet fame and its "heroes". Those who wanted to profit from the opportunities of social media did it at the right time, and to be honest, who could blame them? In a strange way it was almost an 1980s greed = good revival, but eventually people will get tired of all the flash & splash presented in nauseating vocal fry. Could this actively blocking (cancelling?) of celebrities be the beginning of something big? We, the masses, have such immense power - in fact the greatest power in the world - so why do we keep giving it away to a small group of vultures? What keeps us from plundering everything back? It's obvious that something needs to change - not for me, personally, but for the next generations. I wonder if I'll live long enough to watch the young ones storming the mansions, armed with torches and pitchforks, shouting "algorithm is dead!". [/QUOTE]
