I don't really know how to turn the conversation into empirical terms.
I'd say, regardless of the choices, that almost 100% of people use the Net on a regular basis.
The real jam is what percentage of people use the Net as much as humanly possible, also known as "addiction."
I would, under the previously determined descriptions, GUESS at these percentages:
Not-Very: >10%
Brink: >30%
Decline: >50%
Very: >70%
Again, these are just ROUGH ASS, NOT PRECISE numbers. Because everybody also WORKS online not a single one of these, in any way, indicate that society as a whole is falling apart, just that the PHYSICAL WORLD is in great decline.
That the physical world is in such great decline might have something to say about how "dystopic" the world is, but let's save that massive ball-twisting bullshit argument for later.
