Invasive tracking and pay-for-play search engines has broken the internet. It’s time to reclaim our independence with the Small Web.

    Oh,

    It’s not just advertising (and its commensurate tracking paradigm)…

    Data mining for profit, SEO for profit, and pervasive Counterfeit Cognizance are all playing their part in ruining the Internet experience.

    Perhaps all the above could be summed up by “Capitalist Greed”…??? 🤡 🖕

      No. It’s can’t. And you’re actively hurting your efforts by attaching high school edgelord bullshit to it.

      Corruption has been a seriously problem everywhere, forever, and does not care one bit what words the ruling party uses to express themselves. None of what is happening right now is restricted to nations which call themselves capitalist.

        You dont have to call yourself capitalist to be capitalist. The main difference between modern western capitalism and classic monarchy is the collective perception of divine right. Now that perception is completely personal.
