It's exactly the way David Bowie described how it would be back in the 90's, though.

Is this a joke I don't get or is there any source of what did David Bowie said ? (o･ω･o)

Here you go. Interview he did in 1999. I can't find it right now, but this isn't the full interview; he goes into a bit more detail after this and mentions the bad things it would bring that we are starting to become more well known and widespread.
