Good article and reminder of how it is. To learn from our failures and hardships is where we grow the most.

IQ is only few percent of the total intelligence. But most people seem to see it as 99% so often.

It also comes down to so many other factors such as the environment we are brought up in, which affects our intelligence. Intelligence is not some blueprint we have from birth I learned. But very much our mental outlook on life as we progress. Those who feel intelligent due to high IQ makes me wonder how intelligent they truly are.

Lets all just trust these corporations who went behind our backs since start of the 90s.

EFF reports clearly shows now that the major corporations which backstabbed us are doing all they can now to serve our interests and not other agendas. Herd the sheep, and sheep will not say a thing. Well done EFF, show me the way to herd the sheep.

But it also gives very good results for common search tasks. Compared it myself to few other not so known search engines and it gives even better results than Google since it doesn't seem to favor corporate web pages but rather relevant results. Google became too big and too greedy and top of it all caved into the mass surveillance scheme, behind our backs. Why use a search engine and products endorsed by hypocrites. At least yahoo did some minor fight although they are not exactly better either, but that fight did give many of us a warning about what is going on behind the curtains.

I completely agree and came to the same conclusion lately. The future for the internet is micro "lightnets" which I prefer to call it, the true (dark)net is what the original internet has become apparently. It is way too infiltrated by those few who control the world and too big to try to change it. Try to make a billion internet users encrypt their email and exchange keys... and even that isn't secure. Those webs of "lightnets" can interact in the future in one big network independent of each other. Like many tiny internets in one big network. I find myself having a distaste more and more for everything resonating with corporations who are too big to stay connected with the individuals they serve on a human to human basis. When that threshold is reached for a corporation it always spirals out of control and there you have it, greed power control takes over the organization, and its only you the individual who can make a change. Feudalism at its finest and it saddens me deeply to see so many millions cave into it like zombies just to be going with the herd, afraid to think and go their own path. Ever considered why so many zombie movies lately? Perhaps reflection of reality on a mental level in our society. People willing to do anything for freedom and the truth gives me hope.

I will invest my time and future into these next gen lightnets and hopefully we can share some freedom away from greed power and control. Internet unless it is revoked exist no more. Transformed into a malicious beast savaging everything and everyone in its path controlled by the masters who seek to enslave the mind of mankind.

Hacker news should be renamed to Peasant news. Just how the reality is. Not really new but didn't expect mainstream media to write about the reality of it. Guess a rare one. Personally I will never go for an investor in a pseudo-economic market which we live in. It's like begging to become a new age peasant. You'll have more freedom living as a wildling in the woods or become a small-scale farmer. Oh right you need that latest hi-tech gadget which they use to enslave your mind. Well enjoy it.
