if you're truly unaware of the discoveries and advancement in the realms of AI and automation due to the peripheral goals of these companies, then you're a fucking idiot.

And if you don't know that fighting these legal battles from government shakedowns results in stalled projects then you're even more of a fucking brainlet

They innovated just enough to secure an enormous competitive edge that allows them to buy out any serious competitors. Ever since then they have worked together building a nightmarish panopticon under the guise of securing data for advertisement. It's likely that these companies were working together with the previous administration as well. Google alone had more than 400 white house visits during the Obama Administration. They've all gotten away with paying less than minimum taxes for years and then brokering deals while the average citizen cannot even accumulate enough wealth to escape the wagecage.

Your types always feign ignorance as though it is harmless meta data. In reality there is so much data being accumulated, sorted, and saved forever that these companies can practically predict your future. Before long, they will have figured out the exact input they need to feed to you in order to manufacture their desired output.

This is unironically good for crypto

Everybody listen to this guy

The future of digital liberty depends on OWNING YOUR PERSONAL DATA. The success of crypto and decentralized networks is completely antithetical to the existing tech hegemony. (You) cannot allow these data-harvesting vampires to thrive any longer. After nearly two decades of development, the age of the personal server meme will soon be upon us.
