Social Media platforms exist because typical bandwidth was very low at the start. Today, 100+ mbps fiberoptic internet service and 5G cellular telephony are making them obsolete. Rather, you will download apps that moderate and facilitate your P2P interactions. You may monetize your content or not at your discretion.
If you receive content and you 'like' it, it will go out to your direct contacts who have chosen to be notified of your likes. They may 1) request contact with the author and 2) choose to 'like' it and, thereby, pass it on to your contacts, assuming that they have enabled that function.
In this way, there is no central platform that processes contacts or content. Everything happens via SMS, e-mail or likely a new, but similar tech. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, etc. all disappear. And the large social media companies will lose their and power.
This can happen very, very fast. You will likely get some sort of monetization of the 'send and receive' apps. Of course. They will need to be profitable. But the 'net of monetization' cost will be low or may even show a bit of a profit. It is a different world that we are headed for and, of course, 'the powers that be' will try to stop it.
Hi all, I live in Canada. And the article " The Inappropriately Excluded " is really something that deeply resonates with me, and has helped make sense of my life. That I've been going back to it for years as a reference. But today found out there is this meetup group. Excellent stuff!
So I'm wondering what are people's interests here?
I like transition planning, and how we'll get through the end of oil,
archival of important documents, talking to international advisors and politicians about it. Also run several businesses. And do a lot of religious stuff,
cause that's best way of connecting with the uh IQ challenged majority in terms they can understand. So for that I run anabaptist.ca and got like outreach for all sorts of faiths, like humanism, islam, communists, chinese, hindus, christians etc: https://anabaptist.ca/dyet/
Hi! Just joined. I discovered this group through the Inappropriatelt Excluded article and it hit home. Looks very interesting :)
After Dobbs v Jackson, people are saying they want to move to Canada? Why? There is no part of Canada that allows abortion after 23 weeks. And, of course, nowhere in Europe are abortions legal after 24 weeks. So, if one really feels that access abortion is so important, the best thing to do is move to California. It has the most Progressive abortion laws pretty much anywhere, save China, North Korea, and Vietnam. Honestly, if this is your thing, then you should move to California. Whatever state you are in, they will celebrate your departure.
