What does author Pappalardo mean when she states that “[t]here is often a difference between consumer information and consumer comprehension”?The internet has made the world smaller and enlarged our access to information.

What does Justin Hurwitz mean when he states that the internet was “built on a foundation of trust”? What is the current state of this foundation of trust?
