Well, staying in the EU has meant an end to roaming charges but I do agree that political campaigning seemed to change for the worst in the Brexit campaigning.
But on the positive side of things:
1) a lot of people did take an interest in Brexit and bother to vote
2) Subsequently, a lot of younger voters who have ignored politics are now taking an interest and registering to vote
3) the fact-checking services like FullFact have surfaced which are very useful in understanding highly politicised issues.
