fic_promptly's Sleepy Hollow - Ichabod - the internet
So much information, right at one's fingertips. One had only to learn the right codes, pressing the right switches on the 'keyboard' to put in the right addresses, and the mass of human learning and literature spread out before ones eyes, for ones perusal. All he needed to catch up on the past two hundred years.
And what did people use this tool for? Cat pictures with so-called 'funny' captions. Criminals getting themselves caught in the act on their own videos. Forums where people screamed at each other in uncivil tones rather than discussed things like rational people with intellects.
