we are setting the stage for hundreds of years to come; the trends in technology now will set the foundation for the future. Therefore, to maintain as many personal rights as possible and avoid a dystopia, the very first step is to not buy products which in any way tamper with the consumers' rights as if its acceptable.
Cops being able to use the GPS in your phone to track you is unacceptable, and now that nothing was ever done about it and no one made a case about it, it's here to stay.
Companies making you pay for extra content that they knew damn well they could have given to you in the first place is unacceptable.
Milking the consumer for being technology-illiterate is unacceptable; false scarcities like "Data" must be seen for what they are

So transparently trying to look deep and unaffected on the internet...

"All you stupid sheeple with your levis jeans and your mcdonalds double quarter pounders are just stupid zombies, man, throwing away money on consumable feel-good nonsense that doesn't, like, enrich your lifes and junk. You should, like, meditate and stuff, I dunno. Now if you'll excuse me I just bought a shitload of Purdue Pharma L.C.© Oxycontin®™".

If you think about it, what I'm saying isn't anti-consumerist, its pro-consumerist -- I'm advocating improving the quality of goods and services for the consumer, not ridding ourselves of goods and services altogether

you know some companies have people on the payroll who do nothing all day but go online to assess the company's image and try to improve it? It's literally some guy's job to edit a company's wikipedia article to remove or reword any criticism against the company he works for

I don't know what's funnier, that you're surprised companies hire PR firms to improve their image or that you expect me to share in your surprise

They're lulling everyone back into a dream; the internet used to provide a clear portrait of reality, now it'll tell you whatever you want to hear or believe. You can google just about any crackpot idea you can think of and find bozos adamantly supporting it, and supply yourself with enough half-ass evidence to believe it. Here, as proof of concept, let's google "Toothpaste kills brain cells"; as expected, there is about ten pages of results of freaks spouting out paranoid nonsense

what'd bottled water manufacturers ever do except save one the trouble of having to pour a glass of water themselves? I don't know, but apparently some people hate bottled water enough that they've gone out of their way to slander bottled waters companies and accuse them of mass murder

Even if you were, if every college freshman dipshit on the entire internet is saying the same exact thing then why bother? it's not like you're bringing any new insight to the table, you're pointing out really obvious things and saying "that, like, sucks man".

I wish you were right, that would mean the next generation of educated individuals knows what's up. But they don't, they're all talk; some of the claim to despide consumerism, then turn around and buy the limited-capability iphone and an overpriced macintosh, made by a company that has survived on the corporate philosophical principle of assuming that its customers are idiots

you know telecommunications companies like AT&T have been given grants since back in the mid 90s to improve infrastructure? Which they didn't. They were supposed to upgrade everything to fiber and throw out the copper, instead they just used the grants to do slightly more than standard maintenance, called it "improving the infrastructure", and pocketed tax payers money.
Why would they ever want to upgrade to fiber optics now, they are making way too much money off of leaving everything as copper and charging extra money for bandwith.. If that's not a consumer's nightmare, I don't know what is.

I didn't read that but I'll bet it's how about corporations, like, screw us and stuff, man.

Early 2000s:
Everyone's making mp3 players: "Here buy our mp3 player, it can hold 200mb of songs, just copy/paste the songs you want on it from your music folder into the mp3 player's folder."
All of the consumers; "Wow that is pretty neat!"
Apple: "Here buy our iPod, Ummmmmmm yeah okay, its not an 'mp3 player', its an iPod okay, get it right. Mandatory software has to be installed before using it, NYAAAAH! Go to our store and pay money for the music that should be free"
All of the Consumers: "I fucking love it, way better than that other fucking thing i was using! And it's an iPod not an mp3 player mmkay *smug as fuck*"

Apple is then resuscitated and re-enters the playing field as a formidable opponent so they can continue to spread their disease in the pc market for decades to come. And everyone was sooo close to forgetting that Apple even existed, and letting them die off. God damn you ipod!
