Is capitalism in the room with you right now?

I'm typing this on a device that I carry around with me all day, who's entire purpose is to collect as much data as possible and deliver it back to the company I bought it from. All in order to influence me to buy more of their stuff. In a way, yeah capitalism is always in the room with me. It kinda sucks.

Take the FOSS pill, if you can! Go for privacy-focused setups and reduce addictive elements, the mental clarity is huge.
