Greenfeld’s theory of mind casts our internet addictions in a different light. When we give away time, it implies, we give away ourselves. When we spend hours scrolling Facebook, we are literally swapping our own thoughts for the feed’s. In fact, through the lens of this theory, much of the social internet starts to resemble a human mind, for what is a mind if not a timeline? In the timelines of Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat, I see approximations of mental life: columns of posts, ordered by when they were published, meant to be read, seen, or watched in sequence.

Ether is a product, NOT a security or investment offering. Ether is simply a token useful for paying transaction fees or building or purchasing decentralized application services on the Ethereum platform; it does not give you voting rights over anything, and we make no guarantees of its future value.
