1. not quite true... too much information

including much which is outright lies, infects those that expect true information on the internet.

3. It'd sad, really. There was a belief that the Internet would pave the way to an era of logic

I think it was because people would be rational actors and good actors who would have the best of intentions.

Biases such as the ingroup bias and confirmation bias have laid waste to this notion though.

5. I thought it provided the definitive answer to the old schoolroom complaint...

"Why do I have to learn this? I'm never going to need it, and if I do I'll just look it up!"

The Internet has proved that if you never develop the habit of looking things up, you won't.

6. One truism still holds true, garbage in, garbage out
