I think his main point is for all of us to focus more on the impact of current uses of current software systems that treat people as commodities. The rest of this amusing rant was not material to his main point—a distraction that generated clicks. Cory and Yanis Varoufakis are focused on our rapid descent into technofeudalism—where we all become data generating and self-consuming serfs to silicon valley barons and knights. They both ironically need the clicks as much as Google.
