A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think this has an effect most people don't think of: Media will just lose it's value as a trusted source for information. We'll just lose the ability of broadcasting media as anything could be faked. Humanity is back to "word of mouth", I guess.
