I remember when the promise of technology was convenience.....somehow we used to believe we would get 'all and then some' in a convenient package......
Let's recap.... convenience.
Used to count elections by hand....took a day...
Now we count electronically.....takes a week....
Used to get the news from the paper....local editors were putting their reputation on the line and the paper cost 0.50-1. (usually read them for free in the diners)
Now....subscribe for 10/month....to get respun 'articles' reposted to thirty places.....or get ads....
Rent a movie and support a local business and maybe get a chance to run into someone and discuss the local reviews etc....
Now...pay a select few corps a 15/month for the privelege of having movies disappear from the shelves....and not have anyone to talk to....
Fuck this.....this is not convenience....not even in the eyes of blind.....
Well when you boycott all of the strongest innovations because they are based on unethical foundations then you don't get to enjoy the fruits of some slaves labor. The reason why all of the big time streamers are so retarded is because they outsourced every single menial task an adult is supposed to learn to an app. You don't get Idiocracy without convenience.
