Oh, yes, HTTPS. That thing which encrypts our connections. Built on trust. I sure do trust the certificate authorities.

How much of an audiophile are you? Have you got vinyl?
(sorry if you already posted about this somewhere. I haven't looked at everything here yet...)

Not much of one; I have an audio interface and decent headphones, but only because I make music and need to record stuff. I got a couple vinyls, but I prefer tapes, even though I never listen to them. My proudest musical possession is a Scatman's World cassette.

I genuinely believe that social media is now solely used as a tool for crowd control, and mass manipulation. The evidence for such is overwhelming. The way which data can be manipulated and the perception of reality shifted. Even now, on sites like this, i have no real way of knowing if people are real or not. I operate on the assumption that they are, whether or not they are feds, or some advertising intern trying to learn more about subcultures is another thing entirely. That's the real issue I see, that the surface level internet like social media, is consistently manipulated and fed ideas which are perpetuated by bots, troll farms, real people using fake accounts to spread misinfo or even just to shill their products. its not about right v left. that entire politicization of the internet is also intentional. memes that are created by mis-info agents to spread paranoia and distrust of anyone who doesn't agree with you wholeheartedly. it is pure insanity. I want to copy and paste this from wiki talking about the key ideas behind Baudrillard's simulacra and simulation. which i think echoes alot of the ideas people have about mistrusting social media, the internet and why the idea of "dead internet theory" seems very accurate. because simply put, it is simulated reality. there is plenty of evidence showing how much these companies put into generating fake content in order to make it seem like the internet is more full of life than it actually is.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Simulacra and Simulation delineates the sign-order into four stages:
The first stage is a faithful image/copy, where we believe, and it may even be correct, that a sign is a "reflection of a profound reality" (pg 6), this is a good appearance, in what Baudrillard called "the sacramental order".
The second stage is perversion of reality, this is where we come to believe the sign to be an unfaithful copy, which "masks and denatures" reality as an "evil appearance—it is of the order of maleficence". Here, signs and images do not faithfully reveal reality to us, but can hint at the existence of an obscure reality which the sign itself is incapable of encapsulating.
The third stage masks the absence of a profound reality, where the sign pretends to be a faithful copy, but it is a copy with no original. Signs and images claim to represent something real, but no representation is taking place and arbitrary images are merely suggested as things which they have no relationship to. Baudrillard calls this the "order of sorcery", a regime of semantic algebra where all human meaning is conjured artificially to appear as a reference to the (increasingly) hermetic truth.
Post truncated. Enter the thread to view.
