Dubious_Fart,

This is my biggest fucking gripe.

Just name if Final Fantasy 7 - Remake part 1/2/whatever… or something.

I’m not gonna buy this shit cause the prices are fucking stupid, but it’d still be nice to be able to keep track of this shit in a way that makes sense to human brains.

What can we do to keep the web open?

Dubious_Fart,

Fire a full Iowa class broadside of anti-monopoly legislation at google, and break it up into like 40 different companies.

and learn from the mistakes of ATT and NOT let them buy eachother back up to become an even bigger monster a few decades down the line.

Dubious_Fart,

Amazon too, Went freaking nuts trying to figure out why I couldnt watch any of my shit above like 180p quality on amazon. until I found out they intentionally and maliciously degrade the quality on non-windows machines.

Dubious_Fart,

Biggest issue i’ve had is AMDRewards site not working on firefox. AMD just ignores the issue and treats it like its a bad redeem code issue, no matter how many times I’ve laid it out for them.

So 3 fucking times I’ve had to install the linux version of Edge, to redeem the code, and download the PVT, just to get my shit. (and immediately uninstall edge afterwards).

I miss the fucking days when they just put the cdkey in the box, and didnt treat me like a thieving piece of shit that had to go through 5 different hoops to prove to them I’m not.

Dubious_Fart,

I know microsoft is not loved by anyone, but this is why I was so furious when they caved and switched Edge to Chromium… Especially since they caved because Google literally abused their position to intentionally and maliciously degrade performance on Edge.

Cause I’d rather have Microsoft/IE/Edge still out there sucking up % away from Chromium, than them ceeding their land and territory to google.

Dubious_Fart,

Except that wont even slow it down.

because tech nerds like us that actually know about it and use it are a slim minority.

The only thing thats going to really stop it is fear mongering and the weights of governments. . and we know how much government loves to crack down on trillion dollar businesses /s

Hi, we're a tech startup run by libertarian Silicon Valley tech bros.

We're not a newspaper, we're a content portal.
We're not a taxi service, we're a ride sharing app.
We're not a pay TV service, we're a streaming platform.
We're not a department store, we're an e-commerce marketplace.
We're not a financial services firm, we're crypto.
We're not a space agency, we're a group of visionaries who are totally going to Mars next year.
We're not a copywriting and graphic design agency, we're a large language model generative AI platform.

Oh sure, we compete against those established businesses. We basically provide the same goods and services.

But we're totally not those things. At least from a legal and PR standpoint.

And that means all the laws and regulations that have built up over the decades around those industries don't apply to us.

Things like consumer protections, privacy protections, minimum wage laws, local content requirements, safety regulations, environmental protections... They totally don't apply to us.

Even copyright laws — as long as we're talking about everyone else's intellectual property.

We're going to move fast and break things — and then externalise the costs of the things we break.

We've also raised several billion in VC funding, and we'll sell our products below cost — even give them away for free for a time — until we run our competition out of the market.

Once we have a near monopoly, we'll enshitify the hell out of our service and jack up prices.

You won't believe what you agreed to in our terms of service agreement.

We may also be secretly hoarding your personal information. We know who you are, we know where you work, we know where you live. But you can trust us.

By the time the regulators and the general public catch on to what we're doing, we will have well and truly moved on to our next grift.

By the way, don't forget to check out our latest innovation. It's the Uber of toothpaste!

Dubious_Fart,

It took longer than I care to admit to realize this was satire.

Which says something about the world and life.
