twitter.com/pseudiom The "Dead Internet" theory proposes that the Internet is "dead". How can a bundle of tubes, cords, and clouds be dead? The name is misleading (and maybe misapplied), but it is not totally incorrect. The Internet suffers a unique form of entropy. Websites, data, and users all exist in a social-technological ecosystem many will do not realize. Everyone (even you) are in this box. The problem is: parts of the box appear to be defunct or not available at all.
The Internet is essentially a game of shadows. Users have to guess at most of what is "there". A problem when most of the modern Internet functions largely in the background. This has produced an eternally repeating cycle around a chain of a dozen "central" websites. The centralization of the Internet has produced a system that does not appear to be there at all. Maybe no one is there anyways...
Could the Internet just be empty?
