RE: Where's you facebook Bob

in #internet7 years ago

It is getting increasingly difficult to abandon the tech giants entirely every year.

Those giants like Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon are actively developing new products to accommodate more of your everyday needs.

Google for an example already controls your email, your website data, your internet browsing behavior and will soon be regulating things like the temperature in you home. That is way more scary than one might think.
Imagine a situation where Google for some reason kicks you out of their system. It could be because they deem your behavior somehow unacceptable. Then you would not be able to contact your friends anylonger, you would not be able to compete with your competitors online because you would no longer possess the required data and your home would be freezing cold.

I do see many arguments against big tech corporations!

Yes, indeed it seems to be impossible for ordinary people!? But I quit it all and am having a fine time, Actually finer time on the internet without the big corps.
