Cory Doctorow - Rescuing the Internet From "Enshittification" - The Daily Show

[TexasTowelie]

Journalist, internet activist, and author Cory Doctorow talks to Ronny Chieng about the concept behind his latest book, “Enshittification,” which breaks down how tech giants like Facebook, Amazon, and Google have made the internet worse for everybody by locking in users only to turn on them. He also stresses how the blame for the “enshittification” of the internet shouldn’t be placed on consumers, but on policy makers, and points to anti-trust enforcement, tech worker unions, and interoperability as the keys to remaking an internet that benefits users instead of billionaires.
