True true, I just specifically took issue with it always having been run by bastards. (I know it’s a meme template, but I just wanted to point to evidence that there is hope that not everything we use has always been yoked with pure greed. Call it a cope, IDC.)

I wouldn’t say Reddit always has been owned by a malicious entity, Aaron Swartz was a cool guy. And if you’re telling me a man who freely distributed thousands of needlessly paywalled research papers is a some kind of arch capitalist, then there’s no helping you.

To be fair, I’d rather always be asked for cookie consent than the websites hoover up every last bit of information about me without my knowledge or consent.

Totally agree with the rest of your points though. Like, why do I need an nVidia account to download fucking drivers?
