The market will ratchet on towards this, everything fake, a information garbage dump, demanding fees every step into the digsite. Recursive, fractal, parasitics all the way down.
And then the people will rebel. They will put us with our laptops together with the other instigators en mass in train wagons and send us into ovens and burn pits like cattle.
"The market wills it" will be written as a welcoming slogan above the end-station.
There will be adds everywhere, colorful and shrill, until the place were it all ends- which will be dark and quiet. And maybe, just maybe we had it coming, but also no way to avoid it.
So i call shotgun on the last wagon.
I know Hyperbole, ludicrous, yadayadaya, but maybe talk to someone not in tech. Behind the service smile, they really hate our guts for the dependencies and shit we forced upon them.

It's just sheer luck I stumbled into this career because I found like programming and designing systems, and I happen to be pretty good at it, and it just so happens to pay damn well, especially to a guy from a lower middle class background. The unavoidable complexity foisted upon the masses by the techno-aristocracy that they are ill-equipped to navigate is staggering. I don't blame them for hating us.
