That&#x27;s a very good point. I think I phrased it that way because I believe it&#x27;s part of a bigger issue at hand - namely that we have all these things reinforcing our bad habits and bad traits, and we don&#x27;t really pay attention to it since it&#x27;s so ubiquitous.<p>I can&#x27;t think of many technological solutions to these types of problems - I say that because trying to ban those types of software generally is like playing whack-a-mole. You get rid of one and another one pops up.<p>The real solution is that people have to police themselves when interacting with technology - being judicious. I wish there was a good way to make that part of our culture.<p>Reading &quot;Here Comes Everybody&quot; is what inspired this line of though in me.<p>Edit: Especially since reading through the rest of the article: what&#x27;s happening on NextDoor was happening on other sites: email groups and yahoo groups. I think there&#x27;s bigger hubbub about next door because it&#x27;s more visible.
