<p>I genuinely believe that the next most important act of resistance people can do right now, beyond supporting the vulnerable and going to protests, is getting off big tech. We can do this. It doesn't have to be this way. Because most of their money is from advertising, we don't pay for these services. The cost of the service is the extraordinary political power these tech tools give o.oooo1% of the population. We are paying a terrible price for these services.</p><p><a href="/tags/bigtech/" rel="tag">#BigTech</a> <a href="/tags/cyberpunk/" rel="tag">#Cyberpunk</a></p>
