• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google’s electricity demand is skyrocketing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s dystopian is that a company like google will fight tooth and nail to remain the sole owner and rights holder to such a tech. A technology that should be made accessible outside the confines of capitalist motives.
  Such technologies have the potential to lift entire populations out of poverty. Not to mention that they could mitigate global warming considerably.
  It is simply not in the interest of humanity to allow one or more companies to hold a monopoly over such technology

  I think that reframing it in the context of consumer protection for digital planned obsolescence might benefit this campaign. Ultimately, this is bigger than games and I think it could benefit from a broader appeal

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to feel tired of technological progress?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem isn’t necessarily the tools we develop. The question is who do these tools empower.
  If technological progress disproportionately empowers a minority and increases socioeconomic injustice, there is no true progress, merely increasingly elaborate repression and abuse
