People do not come to the Internet so that their bad information can be corrected or their cherished theories disproven. Rather, they ask the electronic oracle to confirm them in their ignorance.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The author claims that people rarely go online to be corrected or to have beloved theories overturned. They treat the web like an oracle and want it to validate what they already believe. The tone is scornful, suggesting that easy access to information often just feeds ignorance.
