Part 7/9:
Many in the digital community are voicing concern about the centralization of information and the rapid erosion of online diversity. Forums, blogs, and social media users are criticizing these changes as a death knell for independent publishing and the free flow of truthful information.
Some are calling for the creation of a new, decentralized search system—an "alternative Google"—to preserve open access and ensure diverse voices can be heard. Others mock the situation, joking about the "end of the internet" as we knew it, citing the loss of small sites or community-driven content.
