👍 Every User a Neo
We can’t be in control of our lives as long as those lives are contained by platforms and we lack the tools for mastery over our virtual bodies and minds online.
It doesn’t matter if Facebook, Google and the rest have no malicious intent, or if they really do want to “bring the world closer together”, or to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful” or to “develop services that significantly improve the lives of as many people as possible”. We need to be free and independent agents of our selves.
