You might be right. But just like crypto bros co-opted the term, it could very well be co-opted again by whatever tech seems like the next big thing after "everything is blockchain" fades into obscurity

But what do I know? I'm still sore that "content creator" now means "social media person" rather than "someone who creates content".
