Protonmail.uservoice.com is supposedly “The Voice of the Proton Community”. Well last week I was tracking a post that was rising rapidly to the top-most voted in the “general ideas” category. And this morning when I went to check if it was at the top yet, it’s just gone without a trace. No sign that it was ever there.
I’ve been thinking about this lately. We let these capitalists pretending to be Tony Stark using tech for the good of humanity when they all, without exception, proceed to use their efforts solely to harvest money and make themselves rich while engaging with childish excess, temper tantrums, and activities that harm us all. Musk is a prime example.
They all need to be tightly controlled, in both the marketplace and in any dealings they have with the government or with foreign governments. Starlink (and the space portion of Spacex) for example should be emminent domained and nationalized. We cant have idiot musk weighing in on policy decisions around Ukraine or meeting on the side with Putin and Netenyahu, or addressing congress. He’s only in it to make money, not govern. There needs to be a robust firewall between the two. Our government does not exist to give these capitalists hand jobs.
If only it existed one country where they’re tighly controlled. ☭
