I'm not a big social media user myself. Lemmy is pretty much it, unless I count watching videos on YouTube social media. I still feel a lot of the points he makes in the video.

Richard Stallman is a household name to tech enthusiasts, but there's a whole young generation that's being brought up in a world where this stuff was already there. I'm lucky I remember not having the internet as a child and I worry about how this is effecting the people who are oblivious to it.
