I absolutely adore the internet.

I love a lot of the freedom of the internet, but I think I've had too much contact with the underbelly. The trolls, the lies, the trolls, the shrines to torture... *shudder*, the trolls. And the trolls. If I'm lucky, I find a nice pocket where people are nice and I can hide there for a while, but on sites like YouTube and Cracked it makes me to never want to acknowledge the existence of another person again. It's one reason why I'm pretty interested in this place, so far there hasn't been an all-out brawl over something pointless like, I dunno, the pictures of stars taken from earth are fuzzy due to conspiracy rather than atmospheric dust.
 
True...the downside of the net.

Being "catfished" by someone over a period of years wasn't a pleasant experience either.
 
My alarm bells ring whenever i go on Wikipedia because the information could be nearly edited by anyone and could not be true.
Wikipedia's volunteers look out for unauthorized edits, for what it's worth. Not just anyone's allowed to add or remove information on certain kinds of articles.
 
Ereth I see. But i still am very wary whenever i access any info on the net. As you mentioned before, i take it with a huge grain of salt.
