You have things like the EuroStack, which is Europe’s response to the explicit merger of American tech with American state policy. Frankly, I think that’s much better than taxing or regulating American tech. Just sideline it. Make it irrelevant. Don’t try and fix it. I mean, American tech is irredeemable. Just make it part of the scrap heap of history.

I like this option.

If we Americans

It's not you, it's Big Tech. There's no use bundling yourself with greedy billionaires, and it may actually harm you in the long run, IMO.

Combat the inner enemies in the ways you can. You are not the one.

We also can't be bothered not to use their shitty tech. From the moment I wanted a Gmail replacement to the moment I signed up for a new service was like 6 months.
