It’s just like the old adage that history repeats itself. All the streaming companies are starting to do the exact same damn thing cable did. They’re starting to bloat their own products and expense them completely out of normal working schmoes price bracket.

The early 2000s was Paradise for cord cutters. The whole purpose of moving away from cable was the smaller individualized payments. Now if I want to watch all my shows legally I’m approaching cable tv package prices again. I’ll be damned if I ever get trapped into that cycle again. Now the streaming networks are bombarding us with advertisements that compare the cable was when I cut cord 20 years ago. And they’re slowly getting worse.

I know it’s getting into conspiracy realms, but there seems to be a large right-wing buyout of social media. Reddit and Twitter two of the best Independent News sources in North America I’ve already been hit and even though people will argue they are not true new sources, they allow smaller groups to be heard globally. Young people don’t realize how limited news broadcast were before the 2000s. Almost all media was owned by about 50 people worldwide and good luck getting something published that wasn’t in their agenda. You could see it throughout the 50s and 60s as people being labeled radical when their views didn’t coincide with the media magnets. I try not to be an alarmist but I think we’re heading for another dark ages.

I2p is not a substitution for a proxy. I2p is an end-to-end encryption Network and unless it’s changed over the past couple of years it’s incredibly slow for any multimedia transfer. Coupled on top of that you have to have the knowledge to be able to set up your full system to route all traffic through it. So using it as a a security step for most people is already out of the question. It’s not like a VPN where you can just plug and play. Having your entire network communicate through l2p is going to make everything substantially slower.

Why use a plunger to create an outie? that seems overly complicated, just walk down to your local gas station jam the air hose up your butt for about 20 seconds, et voila, outie. The nice large, beer belly look you also obtain is just icing on the cake.
