I fucking love seeing this stuff happen. We’ve got a really powerful new material to work with here but we need to temper it and get it right or we will only make things worse.
The cat is out of the bag. Either we get it right and have a way to change tides against corps with new found power, or we let it slip and give another jewel away to be locked up in private treasure hoardes
It's a great example that things don't have to happen for the sole benefit of the new technology owner. We've been conditioned for at least half a century that we lose our jobs if that makes more money for the corporation and that this is "the market." Except labor is also a market participant and labor organizing plays a similar role in it as forming a corporation instead of doing business as an individual. People need to see these examples and hopefully that's gonna crack the brainwashing that they don't have a say about their jobs in the businesses they work for.
