We should definitely be doing better, and it's also clear that these negative externalities are not being priced in at all. I do and would want to buy tech that I'm not coerced into to throwing away after a year. It's insane to be how many objects today have batteries that are sealed inside and are meant to be thrown away after- that should be regulated. But that seems to me to be an implementation detail rather than aspect that's worthy of an entire manifesto. I do think the political aspects of things like Ring and Flock cameras and Palantir are super important (the reenforcing of existing power structures part). But I don't get the folding in of this idea that not consuming computing devices is part of the solution- Like I said, it feels like the planned obsolescence of all computing devices and software is fundamental to the field.
