While I am an active critic of distributed privatisation (i.e., #Fediverse as we know it), I will still choose that over corporate privatisation if public service internet is just not a thing yet. Why?
• Corporations under capitalism have but one guiding tenet: the profit motive.
• Social media corporations profit from advertisement operations — especially data harvesting.
• It is their objective, therefore, to maximise profits by maximising data exploitation in every possible way.
