#bigtechmustgo — Public Fediverse posts

I haven't played Minecraft since 2021, so I didn't realize until today that my purchase of the game got nuked because the period for Mojang-to-Microsoft account migration has ended. Oops. If my understanding is correct, I would need to pay another $30 just to play Minecraft again via official means, even though I can still log into my account that I've had for 10 years now. That is BS, and I will not be giving Microsoft money for that scummy move 😡

Not exactly #stopkillinggames, but this is in the same vein I believe.

@alphao

Focusing on X is a mistake, the focus should already be on Big Tech, American, European or otherwise.

@echo_xc since you mentioned #matrix in your hashtags:

are you aware of who hosts the Signal servers?

Not sure, whether this source is perfectly right, but I did never read anything else.

I'm a friend of freedom. The freedom of choosing, who hosts my messenger. Only a few aspects:

- #bigtech (#bigtechmustgo)
- kind of energy use to keep servers alive
- legal
- trust in provider
- kind of service (#decentrelized over #centralized)

@stereo enlightening and scary as fuck!

BIG TECH MUST GO - Martin Andree

#freeSpeech #freedomOfPress

A german profesor from the university of cologne created a study and wrote a book called #bigTechMustGo about how much time we have left to save #democracy from the total monopoly of #GAFAM.

His conclusion:
5 years -> 2029

#journalism #democracy #GAFAM #bigTechMustGo

"Martin Andree was the first to scientifically measure the concentration on the #internet. His results worry him so much that he calls for an uprising against the tech companies. Cicero (German monthly magazine for political culture)"

#journalism #democracy

"Their thirst for power is immense: In just a few years, US digital platforms have seized control of the #internet. They've established impenetrable monopolies using unethical tactics, manipulating both web traffic and revenue to reap substantial profits, writes German media expert Martin Andree, who published the book "Big Tech muss weg! #BigTechMustGo!"
.. there's room for resistance until 2029 .. it could spell the demise of our democracy.."
