@tante None of this is even about progress. It's connected VC techbros' attempt to seize control of a body of work that they did not create, and to impose ever-increasing rents on people who want to use it. It's not progress to build a teleporter if all you want it for is theft.
@tante @jeffersonharrisart Right. While I agree with many aspects in this comic, I also find it highly contradicting. Let‘s stop idealizing „labour“. It’s an structural element of capitalism. Nobody should be forced to do labour for a living. And technology definitely can help with that if it is not in the hands of a few. The problem is capitalizing the technology instead of socializing it.
