Privatize everything free market capitalists have been chipping away at K-12 for some time now. Charter ~~factories~~ Schools are primo examples of divide and conquer public education.

So the human shills that already destroyed good faith in forums and online communities over time are now being fully outsourced to AI. Amazon itself a prime source of enshittification. From fake reviews to everyone with a webpage having affiliate links trying to sell you some shit or other. Including news outlets. Turned everyone into a salesperson.

Less billionaires, corporations and hedge funds involved in higher education would actually be a turn for the better.

Entering stage two of some dystopian fiction written many, many years ago. I hear markets are doing great, record profits in the pandemic age.

This is pretty foul, but in line with conservatives wanting to control education and retcon history. Who controls the past, controls the present. And who controls the present, controls the future...

Microsoft, an early example of enshittification. I read about the pay-to-play nickel and diming of security logs to cloud providers. Logs which would help identify intrusions. Theres just been so many examples of security failuers that highlight the company knows its embedded status within the US govt, and knows it can do less for more.

Don't forget the use of mandatory employment arbitration which effectively reduces workers rights by not allowing them a right to legal action.

I run it in a docker container and it works great.

Every child should be introduced to linux. Will help them understand better they don't need to be treated as products and certainly make them more computer literate, and hopefully more security conscious.

You are right, thank you for the education. Congressional stock trading should be banned. And Warren like any other polit should be called out on it as well.
