Cory Doctorow, enshittification: "finally, they [platforms] abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves".
That is exactly what is happening here; AI is just an excuse, not the reason.
The American Spring, much like the Arab spring, is finally upon us. How delicious BiBi brought it on all by himself and his ego.
Edit: I know the shills/bots and 1% hate this post
Ameriwho?
...dude enshittification is global. As well as people pissed with it.
Yes, it is global. Were your protests effective? The protests in America are working, finally, were they working before? Can’t take a win ? Jfc miserable people
Brrr Israelis chilled Brrrr
What protests are you talking about?
Y’know the protests against Metas AI advertising tool! They’re everywhere.
Ad protests overthrowing governments everywhere! It's Fahrenheit 404 out there!
Oh that is clever
Thanks. I just looked it up and somehow no one else has come up with it. That's crazy. I wish I could make memes, cuz that's just itching for some good commentary
No idea what timeline this dude is living in. Effective protests are not a thing that's happening in America right now, just cops getting ready to commit another Kent State massacre.
If anything here needs massive upheaval it's definitely the police
And an actual defunding.
The ones that ended the Vietnam war of course
Oh ok so you are high, got it.
That has nothing to do with today's issues.
Context. Please look at the context.
OP is ultimately about Faecesbook/Meta demanding more from advertisers than it used to, and using "cuz, uh, AI! It's smurrt!" as justification. I brought enshittification up because FB is clearly on that step of enshittification - after it screwed with the users, now screwing with businesses.
If there was any sort of protest against FB going nuts, it would be when they screwed with the users. If there was any, it failed - because that step of enshittification is already complete.
What you're talking about ("brrr Israelis chilled brrr") is at most sideline related. Don't confuse the arsehole with the pants, OK?
