I did read that but that doesn’t fit the title’s claim of
disparities in access
The access is there, they are simply choosing not to use it.
The poorer people are the only ones that would literally have a disparity in access, as it can get quite expensive to use.
TL;DR Poor people can’t afford stuff.
Next in breaking news: Water is wet and shoes go on your feet.
That’s too bad as the billionaires need more suckers to pump up their insider bets.
They are not doing it to protect kids, don’t perpetuate the bullshit claim used to surveil the globe.
It never ceases to surprise me that some people don’t see the site for the satire that it is. Bullshit links everywhere, dead # links in the footer, hyperbole and satirical content throughout.
It’s the same arc every monopolistic corporation has taken before it, AI is just accelerating the pace of consuming your customer/product because profits must always increase.
There will be no large scale shift from these experiences because most people are either ok, apathetic or blissfully ignorant to the situation, the best you can do is to remove yourself from the exploitation of the userbase. Linux instead of Windows or Android, Almost any search engine other than Google, fediverse instead of reddit, etc.
No Hannah montana Linux. 0/10.
I did the same as you. I think I’m only 3 months into my bw sub.
My experience so far has been that it’s painless to export import my data, so although I won’t be thrilled if proton takes a cue from them and screws us, another move won’t kill me.
Canceled my sub and moved to proton as soon as I found out about this. It’s the sequel to 1pw’s enshitification and I won’t hang around for it.
I absolutely love that the tyrannical bullying by the US is going to result in a globally-visible solar win.
That being said, now I worry that this administration will simply bomb them from existence to keep it from happening.
There is something humorous to the fact that these users have waited until Firefox has begun the AI enshitification process before switching to it. It’s like they just had to wait until it was no longer the clear. Good choice before they made the switch.
Don’t forget that simply having that opinion makes you a terrorist as well.
