The future of the internet in my opinion

[Bluetus]

27. The Internet is many things

We can't stop AI and bots. I don't get flooded with Twitter trash because I don't use Twitter. I do use FB. Zuckerberg is all about cramming commercials at users I have not seen a lot of RW garbage on FB, but maybe that just means that FB is getting good at targeting. But it is flooded with commercials for things that are loosely connected with interests of mine. That is annoying as hell, but I needs to be on FB because there are several product support groups that are important to me.

Perhaps we need something like a "Good Housekeeping seal" that set standards for Internet sites. We have movie ratings. We have the BBB. We have Underwriters' Laboratories. Why not an "Internet Trust" badge for sites. And maybe we cold eventually compel the search engines and browser makers to penalize the sites that don't deserve trust, much like the operating systems pop up warnings like "This is not a trusted site, click this button to proceed at your own caution." Sadly, any such system would probably have to originate in Europe because the US system is pretty much in shambles now.
