Pretty sure the moon landing being a hoax was a conspiracy theory back when Tim Berners-Lee was still in short pants. I don’t think you can point that one at social media.
OMG! TIME 12.2-9 has an item about cutting edge data storage (p.96). "CATALOG took inspiration from the human body’s efficient system for storing genetic information to create the DNA DataWriter, which prints data on blank synthetic strands of DNA. Seems we’re generating so much “data” it’s taking up WAY too much storage space. . .
The race for mankind to walk on the moon led to….a gaming revolution. We wasted our space-race-based technological advances for the benefit of turning computer gaming into a sport.
The reality of government / corporate privacy invasion was confirmed when Micro$oft gave away free upgrades to Windows 10 by the millions. Yup, that was pretty conclusive.
We now pay doubters billions, fight for their side to the death, and don’t care what is correct. Most people are lairs except you and I. But sometimes I wonder about you.
HA, HA … I really don’t care anymore … it happened, I was 10 … The NY Mets won the World Series from the Baltimore Orioles that same year, and I was a Met-Fan then … GO ASTROS !!

Not if you are smart about how you use your smartphone. They don’t call them that because the PHONES are smart… ;-)

The film “Capricorn one”, although about a faked trip to Mars, probably got the idea going, and that was back in 1978!

The moon is about twenty miles outside of Tempe (AZ). Right?
