The theory that given time everything on the Internet will devolve into poor quality content designed to drive advertisement revenue through clickbait, stolen, and/or inflammatory content.
To see evidence of the Inevitable Internet Entropy theory one need look no further than once-lauded sites as The Huffington Post, Slate, and Time.

Shortly after the rise of the blogosphere Abraham Lincoln hosted a dinner party at his Cabin Estate and birthplace in Hodgenville, Kentucky.
After this dinner Abraham Lincoln read from his unpublished memoir: A Humble Man's Advice For Life in the Information Age. By the fireside he read many portions, but the section that most impressed his guests was this one, simple sentence:
"The thing about quotes on the internet is that you cannot confirm their validity."
For the sake of brevity many simply use the acronym ALIW when referring to this tidbit of wisdom.
Luke: Did you read what Justin Bieber said in that TMZ article?
Steve: Yeah, but I'm going with Abraham Lincoln's Internet Wisdom on this one.

Proof that Plato's Ring of Gyges was a prophecy.
In Plato's Republic, Socrates proposes what a person would do if they were given the Ring of Gyges, which turns a person invisible and essentially anonymous. Would they still have an incentive to be just under such circumstances? We now know what's like because of the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory. Let's just say, the results do not reflect well on man.

An excellent example of Engrish. I found this phrase a definition of South Korea submitted on September 5, 2003 by someone named Park SJ. Look up the definition and see for yourself. Sounded so hilarious that it deserved its own entry in UD. Has the potential to become the new all your base are belong to us.
Now that I have a wireless router hooked up to a DSL, I can get the most plenty of fast internet anywhere in my home!

Internet Deficit Disorder (IDD) is a new phenomenon whereby all Lebanese citizens exhibit strange behaviors when the internet starts acting up. Symptoms include fear of rain (a common factor in connections cutting off) and repeatedly pressing buttons for no reason due to refreshing web pages so often.
A victim of Internet Deficit Disorder (IDD) uses an Umbrella indoors while it rains outdoors because he/she fears the loss of the internet connection.
