cacophosphere

(n.) A derisive collective term, based on "cacophony," for the incredible inundation of "noise" emitted collectively by the blogosphere, punditocracy, commentariot, webcasts, on-air blabathons, viral emails, translucent exploding pop-up ads, Gossip Industrial Complex, spin rooms, Web 3.0 v16.4, spam hell, polls-of-polls, "No Bias, No Bull" Straight Talk, and-and-and-and-and ...

Appropriately hard to pronounce. (cah-CAH-foe-sphere).

Syn.: bullshit.

I could cancel my subscriptions and go off the grid to escape the cacophosphere, or maybe just slit my wrists.
