“Electronic mail systems can, if used by many people, cause severe information overload problems. The cause of this problem is that it is so easy to send a message to a large number of people, and that systems are often designed to give the sender too much control of the communication process, and the receiver too little control….
People get too many messages, which they do not have time to read. This also means that the really important messages are difficult to find in the large flow of less important messages.
In the future, when we get larger and larger message systems, and these systems get more and more interconnected, this will be a problem for almost all users of these systems.”
Jacob Palme, The Information: A History, a Theory, a Flood

Loren Weisman
“When you sign up for Instagram, you are agreeing to their terms of service.

When you put content up, you agree that while you own the content you are giving them rights to it as well.

This did not go into effect recently.

This is common place for many social sites.

And you can not post a picture with a statement saying that you do not agree to the agreement you have already agreed to by using the site.”
Loren Weisman

Leaders who play by the rules are having trouble staying ahead of a relentless news cycle and must devote too much effort trying to disprove stories that seem to come out of nowhere and have been invented solely to do them in.”
Madeleine K. Albright, Fascism: A Warning

“W szczytowym okresie znużenia światem, kiedy nawet spam przestał mnie bawić, dołączyłam do grupy dla miłośników kaktusów i sukulentów. (...) Kaktusiarze wydawali się ludźmi życzliwymi, nieżądającymi wiele i nieziemsko spokojnymi. (...) Znalazłam wszechświat równoległy internetu - miejsce, gdzie ludzie przychodzą, by doświadczyć wspólnoty, ukojenia i serdeczności.”
Emilia Dłużewska, Jak płakać w miejscach publicznych
