Enshittenification

I thought I was going to be rickrolled but this is better.

I pay $79 AUD for 250Mb download / 20Mb upload.

They do but it’s just to scam investors.

I didn’t miss that.

But I do miss the content, structure and vastness of the old internet.

Now it has been turned into a strip mall dominated by Facebook, Google, etc. and enshittenification.

I really miss the early internet.

Most “AI” I have seen are basically fancy iterations of autocomplete.

If you are not paying then you are the product.

Been trying to work out what it was to login for years.

These companies don’t realise their most engaged users generate a disproportionate amount of their content.

They will just go to their own spaces.

I think this a good thing in the long run, the internet will become decentralised again.

For shareholders, he has increased the share price and dividends.

It seems he has done this via Boeing route of management, short term gain for long term decline.
