Yeah. And 99.9% of humanity will go on using McInternet, and whatever the fuck we do won't matter and they'll still control all of society and its direction.

    I'm like 99% sure that they've written off millennials as a total loss as a generation they can control and are grooming Gen alpha to be their little human slaves. The 'smart' tech guys decided that cyberpunk dystopia was inevitable and decided to make it themselves.

    that attitude got us in this mess. The internet was free before corporate interests and the series of eternal september esque events happening from '98 onward caused largely by accessibility. Whatever we come up with needs to be difficult enough to access so corporations can't turn everyone into "customers". It doesn't need to be so hard that only nerds can use, but it needs to have enough friction to require effort, thought, and interest of some kind to use
