This reminded me of this song which actually shows the extremism of things in Internet.

Welcome to the Internet - Bo Burnham: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1BneeJTDcU

"Y'know wasn't always like this, not very long ago.. just before your time.. right before the towers fell.. circa 99 this was catalogues, travel blogs a chatroom or two, we set our nights and spent our nights waiting for you."

"It was always the plan to put the world in your head."

"Could I interest you in everything all of the time? Apathy is a tragedy and boredom is a crime. Everything and anything all of the time"

Bo Burnham is amazing. Another (interesting?) song is jefferey bezos song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lI5w2QwdYik [Bo Burnham: Inside - Jeff Bezos]

Recommend everyone to watch both music if you have the time and the first one for sure.

“In your hand”. It’s about smartphones and tablets.

But I second the recommendation.
