@PandaCab Exactly that! Today’s tech is made with inconvenience in mind, not to cure it, but to intensify it. The longer you spend on it trying to get it to work, the more you can be tracked and all that comes with tracking.

I doubt people don’t realize this, though. It seems like the digital sphere is still seen as something secondary, something not worth worrying about, even when their lives pretty much depend on its functioning.

Even when it’s essential infrastructure, people are numb and expect stuff to be broken because that’s how the web has conditioned their expectations for the past one and a half decades. This blog post I read recently really captures that well.
