    The Tech Bros bend the knee. They don’t care about connecting people, or making information accessible. They only care about exploiting you and selling you. So of course there’d be no fight when the government asks for dissenters.

    I hope people start firebombing data centers.

      I’m going to be a bit contrarian here because there is a distinction that’s important.

      If they cared about selling you, they’d have a similar incentive to keep your information private and only sell it to the government (which they can legally do).

      They are bending a knee because they want to stay in Trump’s good side. They are literally becoming collaborators.

      Remember that reddit fought against the MPAA and RIAA to not give them information about pirate users.
