    Glad you like it.

    And yeah, it’s foundational. We tolerate things digitally that we’d never tolerate in person.

    Once I start connecting and analogizing digital to physical concepts in a conversation, it appears to “click” in their heads and they end up saying something along the lines of, “You’re right. It makes sense.”

    Hence this project. I hope people can use this website and link it to people who need it to understand how this affects us all—now, not in the future.
