does using big data products give us literal cancer and take lives?
this brown townogy (and worry) is vastly out of proportion. i dont know why you wouldnt expect big internet companies to exist and dominate the market; the difference with the internet is alternatives are far easier to adopt and thus provide space for smaller niche companies and people to still find users

Should we really have to centralize all of our data, all control over the massive network of the internet to just a handful of small companies? When interests align between these monopolies, there is very little we can do to prevent them from trampling on our liberties in exchange for profit. It's not a coincidence that we inch closer to losing net neutrality every year.
