>>19475I was about to say you what you misunderstood about the points I made but then I read till the end and oh boy
>This is laughable now. Webpages are not "proprietary software". They're adhering to a variety of open W3C standards which is why you can inspect the code on the page and the like. W3C standards are whatever google shits out in chrome. There isn't even a working alternative browser aside from firefox i.e. puppet opposition (and even then shit refuses to work/gets slow) and safari which is just of the same cartel. The "standards" are now way too complicated for any competition to exist since nothing short of international megacorp can maintain such a codebase, let alone make profits.
JS is usually obfuscated and actively anti user - ads, popups, install our app, give us your email, tracking every mouse movement of the user, fingerprinting the shit out of their browser, etc.
Let that sink in, then we can talk.
>>19474I do not see how I fit the tech bro meme. The tech bro is a corpo supported, soy tech fan, probably works in IT and helps building the cybergulag. I am none of those things.
