It's old but here's a video from 8 years ago about one factor of it.

Some numbers from it:

The internet used 2% of the world's electricity in 2011

The internet used 91 billion kilowatt-hours in 2013 just in the US.

The internet data transfer rate was 28,000 gigabytes a second in 2013.

And those are numbers from over 10 years ago. I couldn't find any exact number but I see online advertising specifically uses the same amount of electricity as a small country these days.

And here's a study from 2018 about it if you want something long and crunchy.

From the highlight:

Online advertising consumed between 20.38 to 282.75 TWh of energy and 11.53 – 159.93 million tons of CO2e was emitted to produce the electricity consumed.

Of course there's no exact number as it's not recorded and, if it is, it's guarded (hence the wide range) but it's safe to say it uses a lot of electricity.

At least with TV commercials, they gave actors, directors, and screen writers a way into the film and TV industry and also employed a crew. There were even dedicated crews/houses for specific types of ads. They also had to be interesting or entertaining enough to draw attention given how many people used commercial breaks as bathroom/snack breaks and stopped paying attention to ads.

Sure they were trying to sell you something but at least there were others who were getting a paycheque and building up a resume from them. The more successful or viral an ad went (and going viral before the internet was a big thing), the better it was for the cast and crew and more than a few celebs got their start from a commercial or three.

Not so much now, especially when the whole ad is just CGI. They aren't interesting or entertaining and the production value is low to keep the costs down on that end. If an ad is more than lukewarm, odds are it was designed for TV first because internet advertising is all about quantity over quality.

honestly advertising is so fukcing wasteful not even just in the convincing you to buy shit you never actually wanted but like

how much electricity is wasted displaying ads that could've gone to keeping houses warm. How much paper is produced just to be turned into pamphlets and ads that will just be thrown away. how much internet bandwith is wasted just on the amount of ads that are on the internet nowadays. How many hours worth of labor went into producing ads that are going directly into my adblocker or my waste bin that could've been time spent doing literally ANYTHING useful?

I will locate this NFT factory and report you to OSHA for workplace safety violations that I know you are definitely engaging in.

I have resorted to creating an NFT factory through the unpaid labor of various volunteers. For those who I took payment from who are complaining that I have taken over $100 from them without giving them an NFT yet, please shut the fuck up before I go God Muppet Mode and gun shoot kill you to death!!!!!!!!

Crypto Wallets 101: Safeguarding Your Digital Wealth 💰🔒

Hey there, crypto comrades! Raul here, your friendly neighborhood crypto enthusiast, with some essential tips to keep your digital assets safe and sound in the wild world of cryptocurrencies. Today, we're diving into the fascinating realm of cryptocurrency wallets—a beginner's guide to understanding the ins and outs of these digital vaults and ensuring your crypto stash stays secure. So, grab your virtual keychain, and let's unlock the secrets of crypto wallets together!

What's the Deal with Crypto Wallets?

First things first, let's clear up any confusion about what exactly a crypto wallet is. Think of it as your personal digital safe deposit box—a place to store, send, and receive your cryptocurrencies. But here's the twist: unlike traditional wallets that hold physical cash, crypto wallets store your digital currencies and provide access to the blockchain network, where all transactions are recorded.

Types of Crypto Wallets

Now, let's talk about the different flavors of crypto wallets you'll encounter:

Hardware Wallets: These are physical devices (think USB sticks) designed specifically for storing cryptocurrencies offline. They offer the highest level of security since they're not connected to the internet when not in use. Popular options include Ledger Nano S and Trezor.

Software Wallets: These are digital wallets that run as applications on your computer or smartphone. They're convenient for everyday use but may be more susceptible to hacking if proper security measures aren't taken. Examples include Exodus, Electrum, and Trust Wallet.

Web Wallets: These are wallets hosted online by third-party providers, accessible via a web browser. While they're convenient for quick access, they come with a higher risk of hacking or phishing attacks. Examples include Coinbase and Binance.

Paper Wallets: As the name suggests, these are physical pieces of paper that contain your public and private keys, printed out for safekeeping. They're considered one of the most secure options since they're offline, but you'll need to take extra precautions to prevent loss or damage.

Tips for Keeping Your Crypto Safe

Now that you know the basics, here are some essential tips to ensure your crypto remains as safe as Fort Knox:

Backup Your Wallet: Always create backups of your wallet's private keys or recovery phrases and store them in multiple secure locations. This ensures you can recover your funds if your device is lost or damaged.

Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enable two-factor authentication wherever possible to add an extra layer of security to your accounts.

Stay Vigilant Against Scams: Be wary of phishing attempts, fraudulent websites, and unsolicited requests for your wallet information. When in doubt, double-check URLs and only interact with trusted sources.

Keep Your Software Updated: Regularly update your wallet software and devices to patch any security vulnerabilities and keep your defenses strong.

Consider Cold Storage: For long-term storage of large amounts of cryptocurrency, consider using a hardware or paper wallet stored in a secure location offline.

Final Thoughts

So there you have it, folks—your crash course in crypto wallets 101! Whether you're a seasoned hodler or just dipping your toes into the crypto waters, safeguarding your digital assets should always be a top priority. By choosing the right type of wallet and implementing best security practices, you can sleep soundly knowing your crypto fortune is locked up tight.

Stay safe, stay savvy, and may your crypto journey be filled with nothing but moonshots!

Catch you on the blockchain, Raul 🌕🔒

While digital security is crucial, it's important to remember that physical security for our devices is equally vital.
