A few people find a neat little spot where they can hang out, and for a while things are great, everything is pretty cool. Then, sooner or later, the group gets Too Big. Not so cool stuff starts happening, and where formerly you had a small anarchic group that worked with mutual understanding and (unspoken) agreements, now you have a need for Laws and Enforcement and Bureaucracy.&lt;p&gt;Every beautiful place on Earth will sooner or later be exploited for mass tourism and marketing. If you ever find such a place, keep it a secret, to keep it intact.</text><parent_chain><item><author>dominotw</author><text>Is anyone concerned that we are starting to replicate real world boundaries on the internet.&lt;p&gt;Internet was supposed to free us from the limitations of the real world.

The Internet exists &lt;i&gt;in&lt;/i&gt; the real world, and it exists in countries. Those countries have laws, and they always applied. Governments can take time to adopt to new technologies, but this was always going to happen.&lt;p&gt;And GDPR is an awesome thing, it&amp;#x27;s an example of governments doing the right thing.</text><parent_chain><item><author>dominotw</author><text>Is anyone concerned that we are starting to replicate real world boundaries on the internet.&lt;p&gt;Internet was supposed to free us from the limitations of the real world.
