Rejecting Modernity: Returning to a Wild West Era
The Internet is a vast majority of things, but it revolves heavily around Social Media and Entertainment. From Instagram and Snapchat, to YouTube and Tiktok, they all have one thing in common. They are successful because of you and I.
'How is that bad?' You might find yourself asking, so let me tell you. They harvest your data, your identity, and every scrap of personal information they can get and then sell it to the highest bidder. Among all of that data is your name, address, biometrics, credit/debit card information, etc. If they aren't selling that information to the highest bidder, they are feeding it into an AI LLM (Large-Language Model) and shoving it in your face. Even if you support AI, do you want it to know everything about you for no reason? Because personally, I don't.
At the end of the day, it's your choice to keep supporting and blindly trusting these companies, even as they continue to let investors and politicans enshittify their products and services. However, this guide serves as a way to stick your virtual middle finger up to them.
