They never gonna do that, voluntarily. Forcing capitalism to act in the best interests of consumers is the governments job. Capitalism without regulation is authoritarian dictatorship.

Yeah they do. Fascism is state capitalism. They plan to replicate China.

Replace “meta” will “all of big tech and surveillance capitalism” and I agree.

Look at mr bourgeoisie over here with his artisan food.

This is one of the reasons why I am gradually untying myself from the Apple ecosystem, and all of propriety/big tech; especially US based.

When push comes to shove capitalism will not resist fascism. They will ignore all stated virtue signals and choose profits.

Choosing E2E encrypted FOSS products, that are interoperable with FOSS standards/formats and do not lock you into walled gardens, are the only viable long term solution.

A dozen leakers from a secret police that has employed hundreds of thousands, across decades, is not the example you think it is.

You ever heard of a little trillion dollar operation known as the NSA?

When I go to poor countries I tip/donate well beyond what I’m told is normal, because $10 or $20 is nothing to me, but potentially more money than they’ll earn in days/weeks. It always makes them so happy.

What happiness I would make with a billion…

The worst is when it’s a highly televised event (e.g. fireworks), so it’s already being recorded in 4k by pros, drones, etc.

Nobody will ever watch your crappy phone recording, including you.

Oh fuck

Is this the one that takes on a life of its own, and an episode goes on a serial killer tangent where he has someone locked in the basement?

If it is, this one wins.

Great work! I’ve always considered lemmy to be an interim solution as it doesn’t resolve the core issue of mod centralization. How does your solution differ compare to something like nostr, which is more decentralized than ActivityPub, and not P2P, but also seems to eliminate the mod issue and enable “direct” subscribing to users.

Would your goal be to shard/raid data across IPFS nodes at scale? If not, what would the local nodes size be with millions of users and years of history (e.g. Reddit’s scale)?

My next hope is a fully decentralized and distributed internet archive + piratebay using IPFS over I2P.

My bets on Robocop style corporate dictatorship until terminator style annihilation occurs.

Star Trek was never on the cards.

Dismantle bridge option was initially chosen because it was believed the tax payers would foot the bill… I guarantee it.
