    Next time post it as plaintext. Images use more data for no additional information.

      It definitely is. But thats not the point. The point is they cant claim the data and profit from it. The reason we are entering another information scarcity era is because companies paywall the content we created.

      The difference is they don’t control it, it’s public, can’t really sell data that’s public. They also can’t shake the platforms into for profit hellscapes like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, etc.

      Big tech has been controlling the Internet for too long and it’s time it stopped.

        can’t really sell data that’s public.

        Google doesn’t sell the raw data. The service it “sells” is the indexing of that data amongst other sources of data.

          You‘re missing the point. They can profit off the data like anybody else but they cant make it unavailable to others.

            I get the point. The problem is that Google/Alphabet is the only company that you listed that does better with a decentralized Internet instead of walled gardens like Meta and X.

              First, I didnt list anything from what I see. That was someone else.

              Second, they didnt list google either but feel free to link it

              Third, the original point was that walled gardens are fought with the fediverse which you objected to the point that they cant sell it which is technically correct but misses the point.

              Does it make more sense now?
