This comment is pretty wide of the mark. The article points out that consumers made a mistake in trusting Facebook and rejecting a decentralized Internet. It's valid to make that criticism without inferring that all software of the past 15 years has been a mistake.

The comment seems to reply to the headline.

Is it surprising that when authors use clickbait, people ignore the substance and reply to the most egregious part? Especially if an awful title gives no desire to read the content.
