  • There’s a weird implicit conservancy in tech circles around the dictatorial nature of corporate leadership.

    It stems from this weird externalization of corporate decision making that just turns everything that happens at large companies into the machinations of the unknowable machine of capital.

    “Of course they were fired, they protested in a way that disrupted the business, if the business is disrupted the machine must correct itself, and it did so by releasing the corporate anti-bodies of leadership to fire the disruptive element. Thus the machine is corrected. This is all logically sound, and thus impervious to moral inquisition.”

    I use icecat and it’s pretty nice, main issue is you have to manually approve all JavaScript scripts and cross-site requests manually, so it makes visiting almost any website for the first time a pain in the ass.

    Luckily most stuff is concentrated to a few sites and I use private frontends liberally so it’s not a huge pain.
