@davidcrespo.bsky.socialReposted by @ceciliarikap.bsky.socialfinally started this and it’s as good as @bentarnoff.com said. when I say I want critics to please be serious, this is what I mean. in order to fight big tech you have to actually look at what it does and where its power comes from. you can’t just think about the consumer-facing surface
