By the way, consider screening all the comments to your LiveJournal from now on.

Mental note: close comments on all my YouTube videos. That shit's as dead as a doornail, and I have neither the resources nor the inclination to make more of them.

But I do agree with your post. I still remember when netizens were generally kind to each other but now it's all about using them or screwing them over before someone does the same to them. I suppose the same is true in the mundane world now as well.
But I'm doing to do what I need and like to do. If others don't like that *shrugs*.
