The US needs to end its reliance on big tech and businesses in general. You’re supposed to be a governing body, not party to the countries diseased economic system run by the ultra rich.

I seriously doubt the two are separate like that any more. They are likely completely intertwined at this point. There are hints all around in the technology that indicate we are completely compromised. Moves like integrated phone batteries and the MINIX ME system running under all operating systems on x86, or the proprietary modems; everything subtly points to a surveillance state. We are absolutely hell bent on proving bin Laden correct in his calculations to destroy democracy long term with a neo digital feudal dark age of regression.

Right, I wouldn’t say they’re separate by any means but I’m sure they all have their own strings and lines in the sand, wouldn’t say there’re one in the same quite yet
Nothings ever that black and white
