What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
The lifecycle of Big Internet
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
Embrace, extend and extinguish
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.

The point is to make living in America under the current administration so shitty that people will revolt. Justifying a crackdown, in which hundreds of thousands, if not millions, will die or be incarcerated. And depending on who is backing the revolt, their ideology will replace the current one. And either way, the system of boots and faces will continue.
