读过 Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
本以为是纯蹭 enshittification 这个词的热度扩成一本书,后半部分觉得还行。前半段也觉得就是个外行互联网发展史概论,怀念一下 good old days,对不熟悉互联网发展史和如何运作的人有一定的 TLDR 价值。到后期开始给作者提倡的解决方案时逐渐有了些体系,喷 Apple 以安全为名实则降低了所有人包括 iSheep 们的体验和安全性的 iMessage 圈地行为的时候就直加分了。解决方案无非是提倡政策和监管层面的反垄断,right to fix, right to exit, inter-operability, net-neutrality, unionize. 开始安利 mastodon/fediverse/activityhub 的时候突然次元壁破了。三星半
Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It [Book] Goodreads Douban Skybridge
Explaining the process of the “enshittification” of digital platforms over time and what to do about it.
Cory Doctorow's Enshittification takes a witty yet incisive look at the tech landscape, where platforms like TikTok, Facebook, and Google start off great—before they inevitably turn terrible. In this contemporary moment of digital decline, Doctorow explores how tech giants lure users in with convenience and then degrade their services over time, squeezing profit at the cost of user experience. With a mix of sharp humor and deep insight, he unveils the slow creep of "enshittification," turning the online world into a worse place, one algorithm at a time.
