I really like self -hosting, and some great concepts are coming out of containerization, but I also feel like the next generation are being fed a steady stream of "Rent, lease, stream" to such an extent that kids I know literally don't understand files on their computer, only cloud connected apps and content. I kind of wish there was a philosophy of tech course that made people carefully consider some of the trade-offs we're constantly making with the big five.
It really baffles me when I hear about "pirate streaming sites" being taken down. Why are those even a thing? If you're into piracy already, why not download a copy?
Sports is a big one that comes to mind. Or competition shows people want to live vote for.
