Yup. The vast majority of internet users NEVER:
Customizes their web experience
Uses apps almost exclusively
Navigates beyond the first page/screen
How will they react to this?
That's how.
We're doomed. We were always doomed.
I'm afraid that's always been the case because the mass majority just don't a give a shit. They'll happily conform to whatever the monopolies tell them to.
Would be kinda cool to go back to irc or usenet, because the average internet user does not and will not give a shit about privacy, and definitely won't get a complicated chat thing setup.
