Now that Google , FB wants to trap us and control every aspect of the Internet browsing, Is it even possible to break free.

Or creating new Internet is a unrealistic idea ?

The internet hasn't changed and is still the same Internet from the 90s. We're all still using TCP/IP to communicate. A networked device using this protocol from 1993 would have no issue connecting to a network from 2023 (media conversion and bridging of the physical layer might be needed, but the point remains).

The problem is that everyone decided to congregate around the same four websites and the same web browser. You can, you know, stop using them anytime and seek alternatives RIGHT NOW that still exist. You're here already, so that's a start.

Make your own website! You can even host it on neocities for free.
