It is not and they will not. The sooner people get the idea that corporation is the enemy of the working class, the quicker we get to move to the change phase of operation.
As long as people keep doing stupid shit, the longer the corporations will continue to fuck them over. It is business 101. Why should they change when idiot consumers won’t

You did not get what I was saying at all. Fundamentally, we agree on this and believe me, I’m just as frustrated as you with people blindly following these big tech companies. I’m just trying to say we should be more friendly to people who are not yet technically proficient. I experience it in my day to day life all the time that people choose comfort over their own freedom/their own rights. If I were just to call them stupid, this would just build up resentment and would only really benefit me to feel superior. Instead, I try to educate them about how big tech harms everyone and what alternatives there are. I’ve had years of practice being vegan and having to constantly maneuver situations where people would get mad at me for sticking to my principles. I feel like this is something similar, sticking to the principle of not giving in to the comfort of big tech.
