  • You don’t get malware simply by being connected to the internet.

    If you always stay inside i.e. don’t install anymore apps, stay on known websites, use your own mobile data, you have to be targeted specifically. Most people are just not important enough for the latter.

    That’s how people who just want some basic functions from their phone get to skip the planned obsolescence cycle.




  • Look some of your points were more true in the 20th century than today.

    Military protection was a big deal during the Cold War. But today? Russia is too weak and the America can’t protect sea routes.

    Energy dependance? Renewables are on the rise and the petrodollar’s days are numbered when this current oil crisis continues.

    American tech is at a critical point. When the AI bubble bursts, you will see so much more enshittification and price hikes to recover costs. FOSS alternatives get their time to shine.

    Well if the system fails a bit, your bus or tram won’t drive because the driver isn’t paid.

    If the system fails so hard that fuel isn’t available at all, you have a catastrophe uncompatible to industrial society in total.
