But that&#x27;s exactly my point.<p>Instead of having a bunch of barely connected Internets walled off by language, why not standardize language and have one global venue of communication, where everyone can work together?<p>I am German and I often come across this with my friends, all of whom speak English as a second language. Yet they consume mostly the German parts of the Internet out of habit and convenience. But as far as I can tell, they are worse off for it, since they don&#x27;t have access to a lot of the stuff the Internet has to offer.<p>That is especially obvious when searching for IT&#x2F;tech&#x2F;science topics, but also relevant in other contexts.
