What is enshittification?

The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

The lifecycle of Big Internet

We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.

Embrace, extend and extinguish

We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

I'm not going to deal with this, unsubscribing. I recommend everyone else to do the same, we can't let them get away with this. You can instead donate to an actually good news source, such as ProPublica. And nyt has a bunch of controversies, listed here. I can't support this with a clear conscience.

Except the rapes weren't lies. That's what my link demonstrates.

I don't believe you should engage in denying that the rapes happened and then declare what you think is morally acceptable. You're denying that all tge other rape happened in. your initial comment that I replied to ffs

Ok, you're clearly on the side of Israel over accuracy. I called out specific bullshit from the Israeli state and the NYT. You have now twice tried to suggest that I denied any sexual assault. Nope. I called bullshit on decapitated babies and systematic sexual assault during the attack. Both have been proven to be lies. I never said no one was raped. Stop trying to misconstrue my words and admit that you're not arguing in good faith.

No I believe the UN special envoy that looked into assault on both sides who noted there was assaults on both sides. I gave you a link to an article about her report.

You have denied assault several times now. The initial comment I replied to was you denying that the rapes happened. You keep equivocating on this.
