I was born in 2000s. I have sometimes this feeling like: "waw, it looks like Internet was great at this time, no tracking, real anonymity, no attention economy...". But Internet is still great: we have better and easier means to do what we want to do. People are more aware of dangers of Internet. If shit occurs often on Internet it's because it's just a mean and the real problem is human behaviour. I don't want to fall in the nostalgic trap. I don't want to say myself: "everything good was already done, now we have just shit", because it would prevent me and my generation to create and fix the different problems we face.
