The dismissal of Internet culture as frivolous and of no value is both disturbing and just factually wrong, especially when internet culture is increasingly just all culture. If somebody decided to just abruptly obliterate a large chunk of all the books and music and television produced from 2010 onwards I assume you wouldn’t be so dismissive of it, and I think the fact that you apply different standards to the Internet is indicative of a mindset that may have been valid in the 90s and early 2000s, but does not represent how the world works today. |

If only a single copy was obliterated I would be just as dismissive because any of the destroyed material can still be accessed and archived by using another copy.
