If the place you move to is dependent on advertisers for revenue it will succumb to the same pressures. If it charges a subscription then it will be a gated community with 0.001% the users the rest of the internet has.

If this is slop then what word would you use for someone like Simon Whistler who just cold reads a Wikipedia inspired script that's handed to him?

Scaffolding was set up for renovations and the fire was able to spread quickly by bypassing all the fire breaks that are built into high rises and shooting up the outside. Hong Kong is unique in its use of bamboo scaffolding, which is obviously more flammable than steel.
