> People were in a panic about Napster and how the internet would steal billions of dollars

lol, absolutely not. The music industry was afraid of this, yes. The normies? Couldn't get enough of it.

Depends on how you define "normies". Sure, students happily napstered away, but a lot of adults (even those with no financial stake in the music industry) seriously believed the claims of the music executives that this "piracy" was going to destroy music and needed to be stopped.

So ask the students how they feel about AI?
