       don't be the someone who sees "corporations create 71% of all carbon emissions" and forgets that a corporation is made up of people, who make decisions. that's doomer shit like, the decision to run your facility on coal power, or the decision to leave the lights on overnight, or the decision to drive your merch to stores in a fossil-powered vehicle,people make these decisions on the clockyou might even be one of them

       people make decisions, yesbut these people are selected by power structures to make decisions that favor the shareholder's return on investment over anything elseif these people privilege interests that conflict with shareholders', they get replacedfactor in that stock trading is currently controlled by algorithms, and that the humans in charge of them make decisions about them under similar constraints, and you should quickly realize why the dominant species in the planet is the corporation, an early form of artificial intelligence that we now serve, and that doesn't care at all about our future, even if it still depends on us to carry out its actionsthat's the reason why we seem so doomedwe must take control back from them very soon if we're to stand a chance of survivinghttps://www.fsfla.org/~lxoliva/#singular

       You wrote:> looking into publishing shortly, maybe even this week, an article about my legal struggles against banks' attempts to impose the use of tracking devicesI will be anticipating your work in this area. By "tracking devices" do you mean their closed-source apps? You will not be able to go far in my country without some billboard advertising about "loving" their app.🤮🤮🤮

       I meant the portable telescreens themselves, but yeah, ultimately what the banks are demanding is the use of their own apps rather than standards-compliant web browsers
