I have another question: why do some eras seem to be so free for technology to evolve and so open to new entrants to create their designs and why do other eras feel like a billionaire trap and enclosures for consumers? The 80s/90s felt great for technology, but today it feels like they all want to take anyone’s capacity to do anything beyond being a dumb paying consumer away…like they’re covering all possible outcomes to come out enslaving everyone. Why didn’t they do that in the 80s/90s? Am I looking at the past with rose-tinted glasses?
