Cyber culture, pt.4: Dead Internet Theory, 'most of the Internet is fake'
from Weird Horizon · host Weird Horizon
In this episode we will conclude our discussion on Internet culture and the philosophies that surround our changing relationship with it. So far we have explored all the ways in which the Internet may be classed as 'alive', or at least share similarities with other living structures and networks. In this episode we look at a more modern theory, that the Internet of the 2020s is in fact much less alive than we would think. Have the bots officially taken over, have we reached the point that the human on the Internet is in the minority? And is all this a natural process, the logical culmination of what has come before? Is the Internet dead and did we kill it?
