       @aral Even today you can't choose not to be recorded by someone else's tesla, and it's a bit like Gmail: it doesn't matter whether you own one if enough people around you do.

       @ajroach42 I'm curious: were they complaining about the music or the spoken intro?

       @ajroach42 Sounds like a whisper?

       @aral @rysiek Explaining the social contact to someone is difficult if their mad money depends on not understanding it. To paraphrase.

       @aral @rysiek FWIW I've been seeing a similar pattern in France, even on major sites: allow tracking via cookies or subscribe (€) to the site.

       @feliks @quinn This, yes. IP protection should only apply to things that are legally available for purchase for reasonable price. Same goes for newly released stuff: staggered releases make no sense whatsoever in the age of digital delivery.

       @neil DTMF, DTWF, and DTNBF are just more precise terms, adding gender specifiers.

       @aral It feels to me that even calling it “enshittification” is giving them too much, making it sound like it’s a new concept when it’s just a good old long con. Build trust with a large enough group, betray them as soon as it brings enough profit, repeat.

       @aral @grimalkina @lisihocke Yup, this.  It’s the magic of calling everyone an “engineer” where in reality we spend most of our time playing with Legos of various sizes.
