Just published a new post on my blog, about how everything seems to turn into a subscription these days.

Went a bit out of my comfort zone, and tried to touch on #neoliberalism, #consumerism, and (digital) ownership because I felt inspired by some books and articles I've read recently; from Elinor Ostrom, Kate Raworth, Cory Doctorow (@pluralistic), and Jason Hickel.

Don't expect a masterpiece, most of my writing experience comes just from technical documentations. 😛

… Always interested in further book recommendations, btw. :)

Consumer first; Citizen second | hertig.blog

We have reached the final stage of the neoliberal fever dream. From housing, to media, to printers, to everything else. Get ready to own nothing; pay rent on everything.
