All the things you describe are good and beneficial for society. The problem was that you are preparing for an "impact" in 10 years that is not being predicted by anyone, except doomers and propagandists. You believe that the BBC is "neoliberal propaganda". That is your right, but you will alienate the vast majority of people with such extremist rhetoric.

"I began to prepare on the community level for the impact in the next 10-20 years"

Sorry, I don't think rational debate is possible here. Your beliefs are not based on science or rationality.

"the difference between human extinction and the mere collapse of our civilization"

Literally nobody is predicting any of those things, except propagandists and doomers. I would urge you to broaden your media intake to more mainstream sources, because it is not mentally healthy to be living a life under such falsehoods.

Same. Samsung as a brand is dead to me. It is their right to update previously purchased TVs to show adverts. It is my right to consider their brand toxic swill.

Rather than disabling all the crypto, why not use a browser that isn't infected with it in the first place?

I suspect it's to do with copyright law. Copyright is extremely strong in Japan and there is a cultural pressure not to do the "wrong thing". Preserving old games etc is legally ambitious and this is often ignored in the west. EDIT: person below me posted the same opinion!

It's a curate's egg situation. "Only a little bit of our product contains the largest tech scam of the 21st century". Once a small part of your product is infected, the entire product is corrupted.

Reddit is a psychopath corporation. It actively promotes clownish propaganda, misinformation and conflict to make money from clicks. The homepage is thousands of people screaming hate at each other. I can't think of a corporation that has done more to degrade US society than Reddit.

When they go public soon, they're going to lock all the user-generated content behind their mobile app, and remove access from the website and APIs. Thanks for the content, suckers!

I think Brave has builtin crypto nonsense though? Which is worse than any trackers.

The author Matt Levin really doesn't like "Le Bad Billionaire Man" and posts against him frequently. This piece reads with a clownish amount of bias.

I was puzzled why the premise of the controversial headline was so flimsy, until I noticed halfway down the page that I was being sold a product.

I consider YouTube comments to be an example of "toxic positivity".

YouTube are using AI to only show "postive" comments first, but the overall effect is a bizarre cultish "uncanny valley" approximation of how a real community react.

Interesting, I had not understood that!
