All the tech-bro stuff in the late ninetees was proclaiming this future, that the only way to make a living would be as a creative/producer(ideally, free-lance, so they said), and that the only ways to have freedom would be through open-source and self-authored software.
That last the is real reason it will always be useful to learn to code, until they take that freedom, too, away from us.

Tech obsessives have never cared about consent. To them people are just things they can make do things, just data they can get what they want from, since technology does that they think people shoukd be like that. This isn’t the beginning of that attitude, it’s just the continuation of it.
