Gatekeeping not limited anymore

Comparing early Bulletin Board Systems to the communications tools we use today, we still use text as forms of communication, as in emails, text messages, Slack, social media, etc. Although, with advancements in hypertext—HTML/CSS and Javascript—we are able to form it more visually–hierarchical, use of images and videos. Additionally, with smartphones, we are now able to communicate anywhere; not just limited to our desktops or landlines. We are also able to communicate with anyone around the world. There is not much of a limit or gatekeeping, anymore, from the government or universities.
