Yes, yes … and I still remember when I sat down for the first time at a computer with the Internet and the only address I knew was nba.com. Moreover, typing this address, we waited another 10 minutes for this site to load, and then we turned off the pictures in the browser.
And then there was the first site I created in Notepad in HTML. But they say that everyone … soon there will be no point in making websites, because in fact three companies will have the Internet.
Here's more details …
Analysts estimated the volume of traffic passing through the backbone channels and came to the conclusion that already 70% of Internet flows are controlled by only 3 companies: Google, Facebook and Amazon.
The conclusions are obvious: in a few years there will be no point in creating your own site, because it will not get traffic and in order to get visitors it will be necessary to create a group on Facebook. Placing photos and videos on their sites also makes no sense even in our time, because the entire potential audience of viewers has long moved to YouTube. And Amazon will be the last of the three to finish off private online stores. If you want to sell something, sell it on Amazon.
Destroying the Free Web Is It Good or Bad?

This is very bad for many reasons. First, corporations will have even more opportunities to spy on each of us. All available information will be collected and stored in databases, and for life. What the user bought, what he watched, what he googled, where he has been, what photos he took. If individual private sites had very limited surveillance capabilities, now control over each will be total. Secondly, it will be much easier for the "world behind the scenes" to cut off the air to objectionable truth-talkers. It is quite tedious and expensive to deal with millions of private small resources, but banning groups on your Facebook can be cheap, fun and in whole packs. Or use shadow ban technology and manipulate the public opinion of the population of the entire planet.
