We are experiencing almost a reverse Library of Alexandria of House of Wisdom moment. The people are Boston Tea Partying their own contributions, destroying the value by using scripts to delete all their comments. As sad is it is to see the platform go to shit over time, I feel a poetic peace along with my bittersweet sadness to see such a loss of information, all at once. In some sense there is no undoing this week, even if the blackout ends. As they say in The Worlds End, “for the greater good.”
