It’s crazy that the reddit/Lemmy hivemind opposes the most mild regulations on predatory app stores and the argument is well this law is fine but it COULD slippery nipples our way to a much worse law that is completely different in its form and intent than this law.
I guess you can take the corporate surveillance out of reddit, but you can’t take the libertarian instincts out of the redditors.
Hardly a ‘hive mind’ situation when everything governments all over the world and big corporations have shown, time and again, that they will step up the surveillance any chance they get, try to get away with it, and if they do (which happens all too often), step it up yet again, rinse and repeat.
But you follow your optimistic way of view, at least you’ll be happier than most of us until you see how right we’ve been all along.
Slippery nipples for everyone!
