People have forgot that.
This is a very cucked attitude, my friend
Like the Brits and their damn CCTV
Like the only one of those companies I'm truly scared of is Google/alphabet
*But it's a private company*
Just because there is a very good case to be made that it has a monopoly to access to the internet.
And that monopoly can't ever be broken up without the use of force. Aka the government.
Like my other problem is net neutrality and I don't actually know where I fall on that debate. Because again it's access to the internet b
What I don't like is the contract changes that happen on-the-fly, and wouldn't stand up in court under 'Reasonable expectations'
I mean I have a very small online profile
I mean Google still probably has a massive file on me.
One moment, you're enjoying a website that uses banner ads for income, the next, all the ads are gone, but your data is being sold to other companies, but you didn't agree because you 'signed' an older contract when you joined
I except these companies to do these things and I also understand why they do what they do.
Greed and exploits of other humans is the default state of humanity
It doesn't mean we don't have a massive capacity for good. It's just our default state is not good. And it's much easier to slide down into evil than to do good.
We have contract law for a reason. If I'm living in a land of laws, I expect them to be enforced broadly.
If not, might as well not have it
Yes I want rule of law but some shitty behaviors shouldn't be illegal.
They should just be socially unacceptable.
This kind of data mining and exploitation should fall under the 2nd catagory. Though a good case could be made either way.
Google seems to have successfully privatized the communist revolution from the looks of it lol
Good for them.
It'll bite them in the ass soon enough assuming the government doesn't make them a monopoly.
My god, you Russians are nihilistic lol
I'm not that nihilistic.
I like to think of myself as a realist. Who bets on the worst possible outcome.
Because if someone can go wrong it will.
It's a law of nature.

Nature is a bitch trying to kill you and make it as painful as possible.
Which is why we created societies
The problem with humans is that the majority of them don't care if that happens to you, assuming that you don't take them down with you, because they are busy enough keeping nature off there backs.
That was a run-on sentence but I'm too tired to fix it.
Society is there to keep nature off everyone's back, and delegate it to someone else
A part of nature.
More or less kicking the can down the road.
Yeah, that's nihilistic as fuck.
🤷🏻
I mean entropy
