I’ve watched many clips of Jaron Lanier and done the readings. Lanier makes it clear that he feels that the modern web is a huge problem because it isn’t individualized and it is mass produced. He talks a lot about the glory days of everyone having a webpage rather than something like a facebook or twitter account.
Jaron Lanier is an impressive individual; he is a huge figure in the technology community and is well known for coining the idea of virtual reality. At first he was a huge proponent of progressive technology but now he has chosen to preach against it because it is tearing people away from reality.
