"The internet" isn't for or against anything, it's just a vast computer network. It's the humans with an agenda that exploit the internet (specifically the web) that are against you.
You're correct of course leptons, but do please give credence to
important shorthand. As I've put it before, the Internet is the
battleground. Ground is not necessarily "neutral". It favours certain
forces and tactics. See the "Nine Situations" [0] We used to occupy
type-5 (open ground) which was also mostly type-2 (dispersive). We are
now on "serious" and "difficult" ground. Therefore the environment
itself is hostile. Most of what people commonly think of as "The
Internet" - that's not your friend any more.
If you replace "the internet" with "web browsers", you would be correct. "The internet" doesn't care what bits and bytes travel through it, nor who uses it.
Maybe if you've time for a long but very interesting read have a look
at this [0]. R. Berjon gives a good explanation of why the internet
(and we mean IP routing, DNS, BGP and ISP governance etc) is far from
a level system and what needs to be done to restore it to public
service as a global tool for the good of humanity.
It's great to read these words. People are starting to get it. The Internet is not for you, it's against you.
