So many of these illusions were put together in the mid '90s by thinkers which I can only call Cyber Utopians; people who really believe in the transformative power of the web to change societies and to change them for the better. The most famous quote was that if social networking and blogging was around in the early '90s the genocide in Rwanda would not have happened which is now very often quoted to illustrate this very naïve view that many people had back at the time.
