[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know how we got here: a hyper capitalist society that values profits over everything, turns a blind eye to the ways technology is used to eliminate privacy and overcome consumer protections, and the demonizing of any movement designed to protect workers or consumers over the interests of business owners/capitalists.

[b]Europe illustrates what pushback looks like[/b]: consumer protections with teeth, real suspicion of tech companies who collect and sell consumer data, structural changes to create a voice for workers and consumers (like forcing corporate boards to reserve seats for worker reps or consumer advocates, or creating legal causes of action against tech companies for collecting and selling user data).

But Europeans, culturally, value things like livability and workers rights. Some Americans value these things but many Americans are brainwashed by TV and social media into viewing those priorities with suspicion.[/quote]

“Europe illustrates what pushback looks like,” lol.  You mean the place where engineers make $30,000 a year and people in their 40s still live with their parents?[/quote]
