So I guess that we all suck then, eh? Both Cable and DSL customers alike; both American and Canadian alike, eh?

This man makes so much sense, I mean he truly has the pulse of the new media, doesn’t he? Doesn’t it all seem stale? I mean in the sense that sure we were promised flying cars, or cars that drove themselves at super high speeds in ’super corridors’ from our super apartments to our super workplaces with robots that smoked cigarettes in our super offices where random sexual affairs occurred and no one gave a damn. No. I mean that would be cool, yeah real cool. I mean damn, most of the newsclips you see are in black and white, and the future STILL look totally awesome!! No pollution, no racism, no hunger, no want; yeah who the fuck wouldn’t be happy with that universe.

But it didn’t happen, I guess we have to get over it don’t we? For the most part I think we have, I mean how old would that smoking robot shit be? Is that all you do? Just smoke butts all day long? AND I have to plug you in to boot? Fuck that shit man! I want the shiekh world were we power everything with better fuels, better sources; a world were I can come home from my job and just plunk down my cellphone and headset onto a special part of my desk so that they recharge without having to plug them in, or connect them AT ALL by using a high speed cableless carrier wave (Bluetooth). I mean it’s been here a while now, why isn’t it all the way here yet? I’ll settle for the world of The 6th Day where you’re able to have a mirror with an advertisement based on who I am and then giving me the content that I choose. Yes, maybe it is selling our soul for a fantastic future; but no, we don’t even get that! We sell our souls for all sorts of services that give us our content. Some of us sell our souls to one of the big web based email services, social networking services knowing that in all likelihood our emails and personal data that we knowingly submit, is being scoured by algorithms possibly more voracious than Carnivore, created by some Übergeek who might at this moment be playing table tennis while riding his Segway Human Transporter. We all do it, and we still get fucked over when it comes to just what we can do with it. Traffic shaping, over charging for a service that Japanese children would laugh like Japanese children at just how slow our services are, and how much we get raped for the disservice each and every month. It’s bullshit, pure bullshit. That’s what the man is saying. He’s saying that our inadequate broadband is what’s holding back the next big revolution.

So there you have it; the world is passing us by, and we’re still bickering over whose is fastest. All while the world passes us by, pwn’ing us in more ways than one.
