#ProdigalTechbro - Twitter Hashtag

over 3 years ago

Enshittification is made possible by #Twiddling - the same stunts that monopolists have always pulled, but very fast, and with computers. The self-aggrandizing #ProdigalTechBro (h/t @MariaFarrell) claims this is "hacking your dopamine loop" or some similar mystical nonsense.

That's what twiddling is - doing the same things that grocery store monopolists and rail monopolists and music label monopolists have always done, but very quickly, with computers. 30/

“ I wish all these guys - yes, they’re all guys- well. I also wish that the many, exhausted activists who didn’t take money from Google or Facebook could have even a quarter of the attention, status and authority the #ProdigalTechbro assumes is his birth-right.”

@mariafarrell Careful: the labour will then be on you to point out to them who/what to support... For the #prodigaltechbro isn’t used to listening, researching, following others’ voices and opinions outside their tech bubble. We all serve at their whim...NOT!

@mariafarrell Ha! Hope you’ve charged your batteries, for I imagine they’ll come down on you with all manner of righteousness as to why the #prodigaltechbro matters! Hope you can ask them why they don’t just “support form behind” when they get their Damascus moment.
