In an article about 'shadowbanning'.

I love the idea of people passing around nuggets of wisdom and cautionary tales, focused on these powerful, mercurial, alien beings that have power in our lives. I want them to gather lore like regional spirits or hauntings. I want us to come up with ritual and superstition to propitiate the weird ghosts that linger in our digital edifices. I want there to be legitimate confusion between natural phenomena and supernatural effects. I want us to enter a new dark age, a demon-haunted world where the demons are real and we made them.

To be clear, I actually hate this idea as far as living in this reality goes, but I love the idea in a "this would make a cool story" way.
