No, "we" haven't - "we" were warned, loudly & repeatedly & from the very start, even before SoMe, about these exact dangers & "we" deliberately chose not to listen & press forward in creating the very enshittocene in which this simply couldn't NOT happen.
If the actual we, the public, now accept the "Who could've known!" bullshit it will happen again, so how's about we don't do that.
So what consumer advice do I have for people who are angry about this? I don't have any consumer advice, I'm afraid. You can't shop your way out of a monopoly [...] What I have for you is political advice. To restore the beams and beat back entropy again, we need a better system, not more virtuous individuals. If you feel – as I do – that "the world has moved on," then to wrench it back, you will have to join a polity!" - @pluralistic

Welcome to end-stage capitalism, aka the #enshittocene, where the inmates are in charge of the asylum and we all live in a #pathocracy.
"not only does service just suck,” Fader said, consumers “are starting to realize that a lot of the cool data and technology is being used against them”.

The #enshittocene will be remarked upon by future survivors of the collapse.

L'écrivain Cory Doctorow a introduit le concept d'#enshittification en novembre 2022 sur son blog. Sommes-nous entrés dans l'#enshittocene ?
You are a great coiner who coined #enshittification and #enshittocene .
Do you have a name for this new political coalition that you're talking about?
I'm looking for something short that drives the message home, something that could be spray painted on a wall.
Because I don't own a newspaper.
"- the makers of AI aren’t damned by their failures, they’re damned by their goals. They want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude. Their dream is to invent new forms of life to enslave..." - Anthony Moser
