Yeah. Looks like the future they want is complete marginalization of free computers, of free people. The machines will have to be corporation and government owned in order to network and participate in society. If we own the machine, we're excluded. Ostracized. Even the language they use is disgusting. They say we're "tampering" with the system, as though it wasn't ours to begin with. It makes me really sad that this is what we're heading towards.
- skinfaxi 5mo agoThe thing about networks is that we can create our own.
- matheusmoreira 5mo agoThe thing about governments is they are just as tyrannical as the corporations. "Any network we cannot surveil and dominate is banned" is absolutely within the realm of possibility.
- skinfaxi 5mo agoThen the government would be banning the gathering of people. At that point we're pretty fucked.
