So, I’ve been reading/listening to a lot of Cory Doctorow as he does his Enshittification book tour, and he has this refrain that I thought was kind of pointless at first. It goes something like:
Enshittification was not a fluke. But it was also not inevitable. It was the result of specific decisions, made by named individuals, within living memory, who were warned at the time, and went ahead and did it anyway.
Okay but those sort of named individuals have existed for all time, so…
Is this blurry on purpose?

Stunning!
My mistake, thank you for pointing it out.
If I had a quarter for every pixel in this image I’d have a dime
