is bluesky privately owned? What is preventing this whole thing just happening again?

heaven forbid if people had to start using their own brains again

not so funny thing to say anymore, since there are people who would say stuff like this seriously

imagine if trump seized everything he can from him and deported him for being immigrant

my first thought about it too

only way i’ll be happy with that is if no one owns anything. corporations, people, billionaires. Otherwise might as well burn it all down, why should care if i dont own anything.

infinite amount of monkeys could produce infinite amount of information, i dont see the point

I think they would increase their control over the politicans and law making system while more critical systems like taxation and police are outsourced. Like, collection corporations can buy the rights to collect taxes and police becomes private, protecting primarily corporations interests while regular people can buy some kind of protection package. We are just discardable tools to them so why would they care for people’s wellbeing beyond maybe not causing revolt due to too much suffering.

i wonder when megacorporations start openly governing countries, pushing the local government to sidelines

i wish there was more we could do to help russians topple their dictatorship

but you could design it to be easily scalable instead of having to build another even more expensive thing when you suddenly need to process 41T

russia is untrustworthy country and taints even regular good people by them having to live there. What can they do if kgb or something calls and tells them to put in some code they want? Refuse and watch their loved ones die? Comply but risk telling the community they just did that?

edit. ok maybe that was a bit too harshly put. But dont you think at all that there is possibility that kremlin would exploit something like that?

someone should try to inform relevant courts about technical things, no idea how but those corporations shouldnt be allowed to get away with crime

isnt lying to court felony?

the accounts should be used to inform where the tracking information is collected to instead of being the sole container for it. Never trust that anything you do is safe on corporate servers

fine the fucker for 20% of his net “worth”, that should give him some pause

After i uninstalled chrome some time ago, i noticed it had been slowing down my entire system even when its not on. There is nothing of worth in using it or any other browser derived from it.

they wouldnt remove your frontdoor, they would install their own lock to it and charge you for privilege of using it

they would just make ais tell stupid things how only way to solve global warming is to give even more money to them, why would same thing from ai be any different. We need to seriously start doing non peaceful protests against this shit or we are going to die if we are lucky or watch the planet wither and always remember how we could have prevented the loss of most animals and plants but couldnt be bothered.

Same reason we allow rich walk over us and kill our planet, its easier to just not do anything about it. Its also hard to do anything when you dont know what to do and have nowhere to turn to for support. Sadly its group effort and price of not doing anything is hell.
