Someone has probably already explained it, but WEB-TV is:
You turn on your television and you instantly have full graphical internet
access. That's it. Anyone who buys a TV has full everything. In the long
run, an excellent technology for human evolution. In the short run:
instant dumbing down of the internet as more and more people who know
nothing about anything log on and start complaining about things they do
not like. In the USA there have been many attempts made by government,
mostly on the federal level, to reduce the content of the internet to
something acceptable to a 6 year old. The less intelligent a person is,
usually the less tolerant they are of ideas other than their own.
