If the Internet exists at all in the future, it will be on a much-reduced scale from what we enjoy today, and all the activities of everyday life are not going to reside on it.

Most of suburbia will end up in three ways: ruins, slums, salvage yards for materials.

I believe most of suburbia is unreformable and will not be fixed.

If the Internet exists at all in the future, it will be on a much-reduced scale from what we enjoy today, and all the activities of everyday life are not going to reside on it.

The increment of new development will be the single building lot, if we are lucky, and most of the codes that are now enforced will be ignored because the redundancies they mandate will not be affordable.

I'm serenely convinced that we are heading into what will amount to a time out from technological progress as we know it.
