The internet is still very young and it's too early to make the call as to whether or not it is a "failed utopia." I have a problem with the size of companies like Google and how people so readily give their personal information to Facebook for free. I think as the internet matures, society will become more aware of these issues and perhaps we'll get a critical mass of people demanding their privacy be protected and respected online by all companies. But at the moment, people are more than willing to trade their personal information for free services. As a new generation of kids who have lived their entire lives online grows up, I think they'll be more aware of these issues than anyone.
