Doctrow argues that nascent tech unionization (which we’re closer to having now than ever before) combined with bipartisan fear (and consequent regulation) either directly or via agencies like the FTC and FCC can help to curb Big Tech’s power, and the enshittification that it has wrought.

    You are arguing about definition of enshittidication from guy who defined enshittification…

    No one is locked into streaming services.

    Well, ok, there is alternative.

      No, I agree with the definition. What I’m saying is that quality of streaming services is not degrading. The price is going up but that’s not the same thing.

      And I already said that you have many alternatives: there’s multiple competing services (who’s competing with YT?), you still can buy disks, you can watch TV, you can go to the cinema, damn, you can even read a book. No one is locked into one source of entertainment.
