I think that maybe I can turn Benjiguy to the dark side. He seems to be agreeing that the internet can be a little bit good potentially.

That is the term I was searching for, but I think I have just had to coin it after the moment passed. I can only find "differently socialized" (they're American, so that's fine,) which is talking about socialisation of dogs vs wolves.
