Glad to see I'm not the one that sees the similarity in "zapping" or channel surfing to what people do nowadays with those shorts...
I remember my brother loving to do channel surfing in the 80s when we were young. I've always hated it! maybe that's why I cannot stand the current Tiktok media format (so sad that Youtube is pushing more and more the same format).
Also, remember when telephones started and people who took vertical video where seen as sinners? How times change!
I still consider them as inconsiderate. You can watch a horizontal video on every screen with more, or equal detail. That's not true for vertical videos.
But at least, we could experience first hand that laziness beats thoughtfulness, when people are allowed to.
It's what Americans call non free to air television. You're probably being downvoted because it's intrensic there and they assume you must know about it.
It is indeed intrinsic here in America. Pretty much all houses that have been occupied in the last 50 years have at least one coax cable coming out of a wall jack or a corner of the floor. MoCA adapters allow for a nice home networking backbone in a house like that.

a cable TV where anybody can poison your brain with whatever benefit them
Any state sponsored actor can pay to play.
I'd be curious to know how much cable tv content was direct propaganda or hype
on youtube most of what i see is hyped hyperbolic content, polarized podcasts, shorts.. the way and reason why "content" is produced has changed
whats a cable tv?
It's how we got our internet before the internet.

It's like TikTok but you hit buttons instead of swiping.
that sounds like a lot of work
