 Add to that an #EndToEnd rule for tech requiring them to deliver updates from willing receivers to willing senders, thus newsletter you subscribed to would stay out of your spam folder and every post by the media you followed shows up in your feed: https://pluralistic.net/2022/12/10/e2e/#the-censors-pen 28/ 5 comments
The company charges more for these substandard razors, and you are more likely to find out about them, because of targeted, behavioral ads. These ads starve media companies and creative workers and make social media and search results *terrible*. 30/ A link tax depends on #BigTech staying big, dribbling a few crumbs for media companies, compromising their ability to report on their deep-pocketed beneficiaries, in a way that advantages the biggest media companies and leaves small, local and independent press in the cold. 31/ By contrast, a privacy law, ad-tech breakups, app-store competition and end-to-end delivery would shatter the power of Big Tech and shift power to users, creative workers and media companies. These are solutions that don't just keep working if Big Tech goes away - they actually hasten that demise! What's more, they work just as well for big companies as they do for independents. 32/ |

That would make it end tech giants' sleazy enshittification gambit of forcing creative workers and media companies to pay to "boost" their content (or pay $8/month for a #BlueTick) just to get it in front of the people who asked to see it:

The point of enshittification is that it's bad for everyone *except* the shareholders of tech monopolists. Jeremy's Razors are bad, winning a 2.7 star rating out of five:
