At what point while dreaming up utopic futures where robots perform all the menial hard labor for no money leaving humanity to pursue meaningful lives of leisure writing music and making art did my parents generation fuck up and instead create the opposite
On the practical side, hundreds of governments would need to pass laws to force human content creators to use some kind of digital signature. This would mean, all #SocialMedia accounts would need to be verified. The dream of all law- enforcement officers...and tyrants.
