I really hate how much of the government has been handed to corporations to run for us. From court being on zoom, to needing a Google account or Google phone just to access forms.

I had to have a medical appointment via Zoom. If I wanted help it was that or get bumped out of the system and be on my own (not an option). I didn't even need the damn appointment but it was the gateway to seeing a specialist. So yeah, medical help gated by Zoom. And worse is that when I logged in, they didn't even have the session encrypted 🤦🏻‍♀️
