Yeah I'm surprised this is news to some people. I thought everyone already knew this...

Hating on big tech is the new thing in 2024 I think. I’m not a fan either but this article is just stupid.

Hating on big tech has probably been a thing since the creation of the abacus.

Being honest about products would be a great start. I would probably be totally cool with some of the shit they do if they weren't deceptive about it, Chrome being a great example.

The article isn't that bad either. It's at a novice level, but it's not horrible.

The article isn't stupid. The court that made the decision is.
