Streaming cloud PC

Now you just need this $500 device that's about as powerful as a $75 Roku to stream a virtual PC to your home. You will store all of your data on the cloud where you and everyone else can access it, you will own nothing and we will sell your data for profit. All for just $19.99 a month.

Your PC as a service!

As a bonus, when one persons account is hacked then everyone's data is exposed! By agreeing to use our service you waive all rights to sue or reclaim any data. You get to pay a monthly fee for accessing your private data, what could be better!

And if you do something we don't like, we'll lock you out of your account and all of your data without any recourse!

And it doesn't work if your ISP decides to shit on you

It‘s really depressing how predictable enshittification has become. Everyone already hates what is coming but its happening regardless.

Everyone already hates what is coming but its happening regardless

This is wrong and that's the main issue. Most people don't hate it, they are mostly indifferent and some may even think its a good thing. Most won't notice any difference.

They actively thank Google for keeping their entire location data (maps timeline), why should it be any different with microslop keeping their files "safe"

Problem- humanity is stupid and lazy, and parents dont teach their kids any better because they dont know how.

There's no solution. It will be idiocracy mixed with running man in about 10 years, probably less.

I have a solution, is anyone interested?
