   I found myself nodding along furiously while reading Ed Zitron's "Never Forgive Them". An instant classic of critical technology appreciation:

   https://www.wheresyoured.at/never-forgive-them/

   The only criticism I have is that he's merely highlighting one small part of the enshittified technology experience: That of the adult USian consumer.

   That's a valid perspective of course, but there are SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE, for whom tech is infinitely worse still. (Type "facebook rohingya" into your search engine of choice.)

     @slothrop just finished reading it for the first time and I'm also flushed. Very good read.

     This is a text, that one likely needs to read three times to get a hold on. It's dense yet spot on.
