HOLY CRAP! this is a good statement.
As someone who has sat in front of a computer daily for nearly 30 years, this really hit me.
I am REALLY good at maintaining a no-ad/no-spam experience for my self with high-density-information content, that I almost never see ads.
My viewing is clean, I have never been accidentally rick-rolled, I have never seen TG1C, TubGirl, etc... no Ogrish or other crap...
I am my own 'curator'

But yeah - if you dont take time to set mental-health-boundaries against the internet - then the internet is the same as the experiments when they just plugged in a machine (win98? xp? cant reacall) - pwnd in matter of minutes.
Thats the same as your mind.
put mental firewalls up.
Be open to positive content, but destroy negative impacts on your mental health with impunity.
