Silicon Valley has just one service they sell, available to the highest bidder: exploitation.
It might look like a phone, a laptop, a social network, or even a car but it’s always just the same thing, decorated differently: a mechanism by which to addict you, extract value from you, and exploit you for profit.

This talk so needs to be mirrored on PeerTube. It needs to be mirrored wherever video is served.

@aral Will definitely watch in its entirety - but just from your headline it seems this talk may be related, subject-wise, to Mike Monteiro's 2015 "How Designers Destroyed The World", which remains one of my favorites on this topic 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIcM21l61TE

@DavBot Looks/sounds great; why don’t we make yours the official Peertube upload? :) (Thanks so much for taking the time to prepare this; I appreciate it.)

@aral
Let me know if an Official PeerTube upload happens and I will take down this one and mirror the official with my server instead. (shares bandwidth)
