Don't forget "THE CLOUD" and "IoT"
The cloud was the dumbest hype because it changed nothing. Network services were now named cloud services, that was it.
We also got:
- cyber: the realisation that the internet exists but 20 years too late
- big data: companies snorkeling your data for targeted advertising and government surveillance
- blockchain: safe ways to pay your dealer and investment scams
- VR: the weirdest sort of corporate meetings and some cool game experiments
IOT seems kinda ok in that regard. Connect your microcontrollers to the internet to allow some extra coordination.
What the hell. Cloud is real.
