According to kurzgesagt: Only 50% of the internet is still done be Human Being. 20% are Bots and A.I Slop/stolen content and the other 30% are harmfull Bots, Malware, A.I - Fake News. Think about that...

Yeah, that makes it only worse - since who makes the bots and other crap? Fewer rich morons, who don't want certain stuff on there and want to dominate the whole thing. It's just another crap-consequence of rewarding anti-social behavior that is ingrained and the very Essence of "de-regulated/unhinged" Capitalism. And because corrupt Politicians have helped undermining trust into Governments from their bs "policies", that helps stretching the gap between rich and poor further (them being rich and their voters getting increasingly poorer), people even vote for their own demise these days (again). It's the f-ing Text-book-pattern for Demagoguery in any earlier Democracies....and it still works even thousands of years later nowadays because people are incapable or just exhausted of fact-checking everything they come across the Media (not just Online though, but also "old-fashioned" media which also get their information from Online-Sources, btw.).
This whole system is breaking its own neck at an increasing pace and I dunno if we'll survive this "disruption" this time, which might be worse than anything Humanity has faced given the High-Tech Weaponry we have and no clue what letting loose agentic A.I. Killing-Robots might be capable of!
Good Luck to us all...and maybe some folks in positions with access to this crap, can just make sure that some of these really obviously dumb "ideas" will not see the Light of Day...
