In 1995, Newsweek published what would become a widely ridiculed piece of writing. It was a column by an American astronomer and counterhacker named Clifford Stoll that predicted, among other things, no “online database” would ever replace your daily newspaper, ebooks were too “clunky” to catch on and ecommerce sites would never replace malls because they lacked salespeople.
