The more things change, the more they stay the same.
People say they want changes, but when they are given what they ask for, the masses tend to react badly.
Often there are nasty comments, protest websites and aggressive facebook pages.
Common people don’t REALLY like change. They especially don’t like changes to how things work on the internet.
Which is interesting, since the internet is made to be an agent of change.
If nothing else, the internet does offer one thing to the masses that they are all happy about – it gives them a voice.
Sadly, the bad thing about the internet is also that it gives everyone a voice. EVERYONE.
Good , Bad or Uneducated and Ignorant.

Amen to that!! I just hope I’m not in the latter three…
Just had to share this on Facebook, of course. I think Facebook’s folly was that they rolled out so much at the same time. They’ll lose users for a while as real life is already complicated enough.
