This reminds me of something interesting. Initially, FB was just for nerdy
college kids from prestigious schools. Eventually it trickled around college
campuses and it was still somewhat a nerdy thing to be involved in.

The misinformation/disinformation stuff that permeates social media platforms
seems to directly correlate to the normalization of these platforms for
(gasp) stupid people. We've lowered the tech bar for access to these systems,
and we shouldn't be surprised the collective IQ of these platforms has
cratered.
