ᴮᵉⁿ ᴿᵒʸᶜᵉVOTE IN THE PRIMARIES

This video was released by #Forbrukerrådet, the Norwegian #Consumer Council, a few days ago

It imagines the career trajectory of an "enshittificator"

It was hard for him to enshittify minor aspects of daily life in person, but became easy for him to do so at scale once he embraced the #Internet and #technology

It's genius #satire

@benroyce I note they don't mention Claude setting up on Github to make sloppy pull requests on an industrial scale…

@stuartl

they only have 4 minutes in the video

they would need 4 days to catch all the classifications of enshittification 😒

There is a real undercurrent here in Norway nowadays, leaving the larger, often US-based, shitty suppliers. To be honest it started before The Donald, but it has got a momentum the last year.

@jairajdevadiga

it's also very "the wolf of wall st"

they even alluded to the "sell me this pen" scene from that movie

Show threadJairaj DevadigaMar 8
@benroyce I haven't watched the movie, but I just watched the clip. They even copied the first guy's outfit.
