I think people should probably stop using what we cutely call “the open web” when really it’s just another closed social network of financial interests distracting people from their lives It’s essentially a filter bubble for finance ideas You’re all doing it again, making “too big to fail” ideas that filter the benefits towards a minority (aka TV, and religion to an extent; utilitarian value aside, bubbles controlled by a minority, rent seeking on attention at scale) Stop being a market for human rights abuse at scale Name ONE facet of human existence Facebook has improved? Or Instagram? Other than generating wealth for a minority? Did we have a huge problem organizing birthdays before? I for one am excited to have front row seats from my cushy biotech job as the attention economy collapses I don’t owe society my time in promise of a future it can’t honestly guarantee Still waiting on my nuclear powered car, personal helicopter, and AI that does my job for me
