Our Internet is dying, and we cannot reverse the process of death. In the process of the death of the Internet, there is no doubt that every Internet user is the most powerful driver.
The APP developed by every Internet company we use, they use the river as a pool and the neighbors as a beggar, making every user who uses the product a part of them. The free Internet has long been outside like a candle in the wind, and will soon disappear. And this disappears, and each of us has a responsibility.
In August 1991, the World Wide Web was opened to the public. Shortly after the millennium, the onion network appeared and reached the folk four or five years later.
In the years around the millennium, the real Internet was then.
Freedom.
Any site belongs to its own administrator. Any visitor can express any opinion in it. In the interests of the same but together, do not ask right or wrong, at least, can talk. If you are not happy, just pat your ass and leave.
With the emergence of the Great Firewall and the filing system, the personal websites in China are just like the dusk in the past. For us, since then, the Internet has lost its new vitality, leaving behind the giants that are constantly devouring our Internet world.
For an individual, there is no problem in establishing an overseas website. After all, the current online system is not a white list system. Although it is undeniable that following this trend may be possible in the future, it is not yet, which is enough.
With the rise and monopoly of BAT and Toutiao, the entrance of personal traffic has shifted from search engines to APP. Blog, a traditional place, has become increasingly decadent. I downloaded Jiang Chen's "Blog House" and asked him for data. It reappeared in recent days. Nearly 60% - 70% of the sites are no longer accessible.
I guess the reasons are as follows:
- Blog is not profitable, there is no need to continue.
- Life is too busy.
- Policy reasons.
For a site, the first few years are basically using love to generate electricity. If not dedicated to Internet products, the profit is basically 0. The cost of domain name, virtual space (or server), say more, say less. Although it may be just a meal or a pack of cigarettes, it may also be the last straw to crush the camel in reality.
It's normal that life is too busy. Especially in recent years, we can see the emergence of words such as "996", "Fortune News", "leek" and "migrant workers", which are more mockery of our life, especially the increasingly busy work and life.
The only people who can relax are the front waves and the real back waves. The rest are in a life of running. Looking at all the personal sites, it has explained everything.
Finally, policy reasons. Different provinces and cities have different policies.
For example, some places require no comments. This is a disaster for a blog or a website that relies on interaction. What's more, it is required that there should be no external chain, that is, no links can be exchanged between sites. It seems more difficult to rely solely on search engines and other platforms to drain. More importantly, it is required that Never mind, as far as I know, a relatively familiar website has directed the traffic of its province to the WeChat official account.
At the same time, with the rise of public accounts, headline accounts, Baijia accounts, UC accounts, etc., some bloggers have gone to write about We Media. Such a centralized service is a real disaster for an Internet. The existence of the Internet gives wings to the freedom of public opinion. The centralized Internet breaks the wings of public opinion.
The quality of a product only needs a few sailors to guide its momentum on a centralized platform. Whether an event is detonated or not can be determined by a ban. A person's life and death time can be concluded directly with a single mouth.
Now we need to guide a public opinion, and it will end under the guidance of microblog, Zhihu, headline and public account. For other forums, even if there are different voices, the so-called "minority" can not be heard.
Take the public account as an example. Do you believe you have read a "boiling article" about a mobile phone? As for the specific mobile phone, if I say it, it may have a bad impact, but it is undeniable that many public accounts with large traffic are sending this article. But take a closer look, this brand of mobile phones and its company are not very worth buying.
In Weibo, such a centralized platform, it is easier to guide something, in which we are more likely to selectively lose our own thinking. As for personal blog, it is a matter of opinion; For a forum, the words of three or two friends; For a centralized Internet platform, it is said by thousands of people.
It is a pity that the centralized Internet does not necessarily have millions of people.
I wanted to write a lot, but I gradually deleted them.
I don't know why. In these days, I always feel that the so-called Internet is slowly becoming an information cage. What we see and what we feel are carefully selected, belonging to what we love to see and what we can see.
From 2013 to now, I feel that the more I know about the Internet, the more I feel that the Internet that belongs to us has gradually died.
Is this the case in China?
The same is true abroad.
In addition to Facebook, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, what else?
Station P.
With the development of informatization, all our life services are monopolized by several giants, and our choices are gradually becoming less and less.
Watch a video, iQiYi, Baidu home. Youku, from Ali's family. Tencent Video, Tencent Home.
Read a novel. It's from those families.
Ordering a takeaway is still the shadow of those stores.
After being silent for a long time, our life became isolated islands in the monopoly of several giants. If we compare the Internet to the vast ocean, then there were many islands. We can browse among countless islands to find what we need.
Now, there are only a few isolated islands, and there is no choice.
But with the change of days, these islands are even more difficult to speak, so we become silent audience. It seems that the Internet makes everything more open, but at this moment, we just feel a chill of death.
Our Internet is dying, and we cannot reverse the process of death. In the process of the death of the Internet, there is no doubt that every Internet user is the most powerful driver.
Fortunately, at present, there are still new sites appearing on the dying Internet, hoping to bring a little new life to this place.
