You no longer fully own the movie you bought, your next car will not work 100% even though you bought it if you don't keep paying, your smartphone is not fully yours since you are not free to repair it even though you own it, your home devices "betray you" by sharing data with companies even though you have welcomed them into your home...

I'm sick to death of this technological modernity.

@alejandrobdn You should vote with your money. Don't buy a Google/Apple required phone. Don't buy smart home devices that are cloud connected. Ask your colleagues and family to do the same. I am slowly learning to do this myself, and it is a bit of a struggle.

Sure, it will be less convenient. It will be more expensive. But that is what it costs.
