Ah yes, it was “Cloud” before, wasn’t it?
Radio for the 30’s. Atomic for the 50’s. Mass production for the old 20’s, maybe?
Older. However, WYSIWYG was everything back in the day.
And for the 90s: Information Superhighway.
Remember when “web2.0” and “social” (in the Tech sense) were just buzzwords?
In my world the 2010’s were very much “cloud” and “devops”
Now it’s 100% “AI”

Security hahaExcellent answers here. I would like to add another : Privacy/Security/Military grade encryption Hear me out.While there definetly have been companies making huge strides in that area (Proton,Mullvad,Tor,Brave,Linux foundation,etc) there are others who use those words without giving it a second thought.Facebook claimed they care about your privacy.Microsoft and security.NordVPN and their military grade encryption.These are huge companies and when they use these words to appease the masses, it is either meaningless or has become a buzzword
