I don’t have a job in ai or data mining and those things are taking over my devices and home by force and destroying my attention and forcing unwanted and unnecessary interventions and connections. That is all taking away from what was supposed to go towards my work and income.
I am being gatekept in my own home. I am not even trying to go anywhere else. But I feel connected to all sorts of things I would not allow or sign up for. Its sucking my resources. The blogs are a noxious part. But so are all these software companies and their curation of the lives of people who aren’t fighting the state so much as a digital economy that cuts us out and plunders our resources. And it is not even for a worthwhile product or service.
I post mostly to keep my own resources for me first and then build on that.
This for instance (a creepy little company I read about in a New Yorker article on Marc Andreessen) is an example of what I consider a junk capitalism built job killing real life. Who needs this?

Its probably a parasite on your job and income as well NJCher. They are a life-sucking force.
