Technology isn't inherently bad, obviously, but in our current world it's primarily owned, controlled, and advanced by bad groups and people (for-profit companies, governments, and the rich).

I haven't read the article but tbh, the first thing that popped into my head "for only $9.99/month". Another thing adding the litany of life's problems caused by technology lol
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
