Re: 9/11 culture change?

For clarity, this was the part I was asking about: about how the War on Terror influenced the development of/attitudes toward/legislation of internet-related technologies?

And "legislation of" I will definitely grant you but for the rest of it? I don't see it, honestly. How has 9/11 and War On Terror determined the way in which ordinary people use Internet technology or their attitudes towards it?

Well, for starters, legislation (The Patriot Act -> The Department of Homeland Security -> direct results of 9/11) influences what technologies are permitted to be of available use to the general public, which sure does determine how they "use" it - whether they get to at all. And in the climate surrounding the War on Terror, the "attitude" of the public toward controls on the freedom of information versus security changed drastically. Without public support for these limitations, they don't pass. They did. There was far more public support for privacy/freedom of information online before 9/11, before the rationalization that "it could be used for terrorist activities" was popularized.
