People can rise up at any time and start destroying the machines that guard them.

It’s not bad enough yet but at some point, people won’t accept it anymore. Probably when they have almost nothing left to fight for.

Hmm. To me 2023 was the breakthrough year for them. Now we are already getting used to their flaws.

Phones are ridiculously expensive now. I was always buying the best phone growing up, but now it’s absolutely not worth it. People pay for great cameras, essentially, and then post most of their pics on social media where they are compressed and converted from the original image anyway.

I lost the trust with windows 8 :)

Thank you, I will check it out. :)

Is this similar to obsidian, or?

It’s funny that privacy software is written in languages with so many footguns…

Icecat is a really awkward name. :)

Laughing all the way to the bank.

This sounds like a chat gpt answer.

A more cynical take is that they understand very well, but are being compensated by big tech for looking the other way.

Good people often can’t comprehend how evil people work, and they say “everyone makes mistakes”, or “they don’t understand fully”. Because we want to think that everyone is mostly good.

It’s not like that. :/
