I do not believe the employees at Google, Facebook, or Twitter ever imagined their products would harm democracy in the United States or anywhere else. But the systems they built are doing just that. – Roger McNamee
All this hate and violence is being facilitated by a handful of internet companies that amount to the greatest propaganda machine in history. Facebook, YouTube and Google, Twitter and others – they reach billions of people. The algorithms these platforms depend on deliberately amplify the type of content that keeps users engaged – stories that appeal to our baser instincts and that trigger outrage and fear. – Sacha Baron Cohen
A sewer of bigotry and vile conspiracy theories that threatens democracy and our planet – this cannot possibly be what the creators of the internet had in mind. – Sacha Baron Cohen Attacking big internet companies that promote fake news and bigotry.
Internet journalism is not a world we know very well at all. It’s conducted more on the screen and less in bars, which makes it rather less useful for getting stories about people throwing up over one another, which is what one’s after. – Ian Hislop
On the Internet, it is assumed people are in business to sell out, not to build something they can pass along to their grandkids. – Howard Rheingold

The Internet is a game changer. I’m hopeful I can make a contribution by providing a way to learn about the game of golf free of charge. – Hollis Stacy
The popularity of the Internet and using it as an available resource has really changed the way chefs kind of gather information and look for inspiration. To me, a food trend is potentially a lot of people following an idea. – Grant Achatz

Frank Schirrmacher’s passing is a great loss. Among the intellectuals, he, along with Friedrich Kittler, was the only one who understood the philosophical dimensions of the Internet. – Hubert Burda
I like to say StumbleUpon provides a personal tour of the Internet. The responses are more targeted to your interests than they would be with a regular search engine.

It is obvious that the Internet has become such a video-driven entity. With broadband becoming ubiquitous, viewers and advertisers are looking for professional-quality videos. – Gil Penchina
You mentioned Ross Perot. Mr. Perot jumped into the race at the last minute, had one issue that he ran on, the budget deficit, was in and out of the race a couple of times, and still got 20 million votes, didn’t have the Internet. – Hamilton Jordan
I’ve played with so many people that I never really noticed that I was playing with so many people until after it was compiled on the Internet. I just kept going. I haven’t even heard half the records I’ve played on, to tell you the truth. – Harvey Mason, Jr.
