On today's show Chong and Dan dig into the perils and problems of the internet by seeking to answer the question: "Why is everyone angry all the time?" (Or so it seems). We discuss the profound changes that communication technologies have wrought on societies and unpack how the internet is changing society today in four ways:

  1. The internet connects everyone and everything
  2. The internet doesn’t forget
  3. The internet depends on, and demands, our attention
  4. The internet changes how we communicate
