    It’s almost like all of the big gigantic companies are in cahoots with one another and then one day…BOOM!..they bought all the governments.

      We could see back in the 1980s that corporations were becoming more powerful than governments. And that power imbalance has only continued to become more extreme since then.

    The noose keeps tightening.

    Google also has been trying to argue that modifying client side javascript is equivalent to hacking.

    Modifying code running on your own fucking machine, in your own fucking browser.

      Yes.

      At this rate, we will be having a “local files are hard for the average user” debate, here, in another decade.

      Which, maybe it will be, at that point.

          Hahah apple does so since iOS 1

          iOS is designed from the ground so that people are trained to think in apps rather than files

          This is why it took so long until files appeared and why it is still no file browser like in any other operating system (only local directories for some apps and cloud folders)

      Do you even have a general computing license, citizen? Have you even been through the vetting process?
