Pull the Plug on Technofascism Before It Reboots

“ When Big Tech and the broligarchy are gone, entrepreneurs will finally have a chance to build new businesses whose success doesn’t rely on commodifying their users’ attention, monetizing their data, exploiting workers, enshittifying their own products, and degrading the natural environment.”

There’s a lot of reasons for this community to want consequences for the big tech oligarchs that are more than a slap on the wrist. The benefits of holding them to account are not just for environmentalists, social justice activists or rural people against data centers and inflation; the big tech oligarchs have stifled the emergence of new companies and entrepreneurs. That’s something even VC people should want to see changed.

I have very little hope, given that the DSA is dragging the Democrats around still. I don't see why this pendulum swing won't increase the amplitude of the swing instead of lowering it and us getting to some centrist sanity.

At first, I thought this article was a parody. Then I saw the author has a fellowship at the k-school and is a policy person at northeastern.

I suspect that she may have a future role as one of the CCP's apparatchiks...or as an EU functionary.
