  • Well stated. I think a lot of corporate action nowadays, especially with any industry connected to the internet, is based on similar logic. “How can we squeeze maximum (profit/market share/growth)? If we go too far, we can always undo it thanks to the internet.”

    I wonder how long it’ll be until BMW reintroduces the Heated Seats subscription, or GM changes their legalese to allow them to sell your driving data to 3rd party companies? Those corporate moneygrabs were rolled back due to consumer outrage recently but they’ll probably be back in some form in the next five years.




  • Too much naivete to address in this post but I’d certainly omit the word “wise”. Not liking the options is one thing, refusing to vote for the better one when the other is credibly accused of espionage is fucking dumb. Young people can vote or not vote but if someone lectures me about not taking part in a broken system they’re going to get an earful about how they let assholes ruin their lives through inaction. No one’s going to get what they want by doing nothing and you will never get a candidate that fits you 100% (and if you do, you’re in a cult).
