It's sad they won't listen to their users
it's what happens when big tech is putting profit over people
Not just big tech. It's the story of capitalism as a whole. When we suffered the one two punch of decoupling the cash supply from a tangible asset, and the tax brackets for the Uber wealthy dropping from 90/100% to less than 10% in some cases. We were always destined for this.
And keep in mind I'm not arguing against Fiat currency. But combined did not being locked to a fixed tangible asset. And the basically supreme Court decided profit above all else ruling. It's turned it all into a giant unrelated untamed game of abstract numbers.
Same old story...
Tale as old as time...
