So Centurylink for example can only run shit in Louisiana. And all the other state monopolies they have will have to goto other owners/companies.

if they are so big no one will actually pay for a new rising competition

since they suck

People must be tired of me quoting Thomas Sowell at this point, but read Basic Economics.

@Strufa you just shouldnt deal with american tech companies to begin with

fun fact

TYT has a monopoly on being better than you, MUCH better than you

ppl dont vote with their wallet

TYT?

He cites several notable examples where he has shown that companies everyone thought of us monopolies were quickly displaced.

the young turks

they should @Achlys

Seriously?

Why?

😄

@Strufa american tech companies are forced to build backdoors into your stuff.

cuz they're the only people announcing it

I have so many books on my to read list

@Achlys there are low security prisons as well, not all are high security. They have them do roadwork, remote work like data entry and other menial tasks

lets stop the theorical bullshit since economy its not a science and lets evaluate the real world impact

@Strufa get some quality swiss products for example instead

Just empty your to read list and read Thomas Sowell.

A guy at work wants me to read notes form underground, the Marxist discord wants me to read anti Oedipus

Then I finally have someone to talk to.

that goes for both hard and software

@Redneo not "forced" sometimes its from government subsidizing them to do so, others its china.

the NSA wants backdoors in everything

Indeed

All of my hardware has become software with growing age.

the absolute free market its literally anarchism and that shit doesnt work

for "counter-terrorism"

@Strufa what do you mean "doesnt work"?

I mean sweet shit Australia banned all forms of encryption

>inb4 "Read Marx"

at achieving WHAT exactly?

a society that dont suck?

@EndangeredProdigy I don't think it's quite like that

@stedly when was marx an ancap?

It's not an absolute free market, because it's not a market at all if there are no rules.

literally what communism falied to do many times

Lots of Australian laws are poorly understood outside of Australia

@Undead Mockingbird i agree
