- piva00 3y agoIt's turning out to be worse than a monopoly, it's becoming a feudal system, we are all paying rent to the lords (Google, Meta, Amazon, etc.) through our attention, through our piecemeal data that ends up creating a whole identity of ourselves to their systems. We are feeding all of them with free work about what we like or dislike and allowing them to shape our behaviours based on this free labour. They fenced of parts of the internet, there's no way to compete with Google on YouTube, there's no way to create an alternative marketplace to Amazon, they control these now and we all need to pay rent.
