  1. My favorite is that Google adds words into your searches in ways the user cannot see or change. Specifically to push your searches to advertisers who paid google.

  3. Microsoft exists as a business by paywalling you from legally doing that

  5.  @KevinJDildonik  fun this is, that's possible today and making it illegal for you to have a custom dash display in your computer car does nothing to keep you safe.

  12. Because that's what monopolies do.

  13. There should be criminal charges on Adobe.

  14. I am still a fan of the federal parks service

  15.  @Heisenberg355  digital rights management. Microsoft isn't a software company. It's a digital rights holding company.

  16. Corporate ransomware is a fantastic way to describe all this subscription nonsense. Well done.

  17. ​ @adultmoshifan87 Also Adobe should be broken on the wheel.

  22. Microsoft is getting a new form of data harvesting of their users. So Microsoft is getting additional value. If any value happens for the end user, that is just an accidental coincidence.

  23. Windows 11 needs all that extra processing power to more effectively monitor everything you do so it can be sold to data brokers.

  24. It is fake. Apple only exist in the software market so the actual big players(Microsoft and Alphabet) can say they aren't technically monopolies

  25.  wokeemperor4345  Your honor I asked the suspect why he murdered those innocent orphans. All he would say is no comment. It's my professional opinion as a state sponsored gun holder that he is very clearly a guilty orphan murderer.

  26. Makes sense. These companies piggyback so hard off of government research and courts.

  27. That's what smart homes do.

  28. ​ @Oeoaea  That would mean more if you knew all the stuff that is illegal. Your corporate overlords decide what's illegal.

  29. Using the internet to destroy an indiginous civilization. Man in his natural state cannot handle the power of the goon cocoon.

  30. ​ @admiralkaede tell that to Apple and Microsofts whole business model

  31. The politicians went home for holiday and their grandkids couldn't set up the devices the way the politicians wanted because the oligopolies got too greedy.

  33.  @DrumToTheBassWoop  Clippy gonna scrape your SSD to make sure it only has programs that paid Microsoft or give Microsoft backdoor access.

  34. ​ @Rightly_Divided here's a fun secret. credit scores have never been useful for determining who actually pays back loans. You should look into the history of the U.S credit system. Credit scores are used as a pretense to justify systemic discrimination, spy on western consumers, and not much else.

  40. I'm glad for profit corporations don't exist. Bloomberg News alone would crash the IA just to keep the expanding paywalls across the internet.

  41.  @marsovac  This is from evidence in the DOJ antitrust complaint against Google. Search queries very literally have additional keywords entered into users searches on Google's backend specifically to drive whatever you search to paid content. Regardless of what you were looking for. It's not scoring. It's literally changing searches to push paid content. Not my words or opinions. They are from Google's internal business dealings they were forced to put into evidence.

  45. Fun fact: Apps only exist(they are just webpages) because an app can have just enough BS intellectual law applied to it so cracking apps is an ultra felony.

  48. Spoken like a the animal at the zoo who can't even see the bars​ @parmiig . You can't opt out of Microsofts BS. They (artificially) own too much of the software space.

  49. These companies have been sending everything they have to the NSA since the Snowden leaks. This is just one more part of our digital footprint the state is cataloging.

  55.  @Johncw87  Apple exists so the actual big players(Microsoft and alphabet) can claim they aren't literal monopolies. Microsoft crushed the open software movement and turned DRM into a fiefdom of rights holding. Which has spread into literally everything that can hold a computer. Like cars. Figuring out how to Install Linux on your car computer is a felony. Which none of you know because none of you ever try.

  56.  @Johncw87  I am literally not allowed to answer you. But your view is hilariously outdated. Nestle is wat more than chocolate. Microsoft is way more than software.

  57.  @Johncw87  You don't know the landscape of Microsoft's business model. It's all digital rights management. Paywalling your access while restricting your availability to things that are better and free.

  58.  @Johncw87  YouTube auto deletes comments. Google windows media DRM and that can at least get you started. Or ignore me and keep not knowing why literally every product that can hold a microchip keeps getting objectively worse.

  59.  @Johncw87  Microsoft makes software in the same way Nestle makes chocolate. True in a way that completely misses the point.

  60.  @Johncw87  DRM is implemented with law. DRM is just very breakable code. Code you can't break, copy, study, or report bugs about without committing several felonies. Pick up some books on the topic. You are trying to be pointlessly pedantic for a company you have no control or influence over.

  61.  @Johncw87  You don't know the laws and you don't know microsoft's role in them(there are books on the topic that I can't post without auto delete kicking in).

  62.  @Johncw87  Lol what you think is accurate means less than nothing. Open source software is a niche product because microsoft uses digital rights they hold to lock away so many things.

  68. Software innovation under capitalism the past decade has been to artifically restrict basic functionality of a software unless the real© owners of the code(which they want you only able to borrow)are paid. Regularly. Forever. High end smartphones literally have downgraded internal storage. So you have to buy a monthly cloud storage subscription.

  71. @wokeemperor4345 You don't have the world's largest prison population because people are stupid. The state has ruined more lives than you can imagine with far less evidence than "speculation". You'd know that if you weren't a white man.

  73. Microsoft pushes people into using OneDrive. So even with admin control users end up putting way too much info onto (someone else's computer) "the cloud™".
