@alxcndr@mastodon.social @lain@pleroma.soykaf.com @Wolf480pl@niu.moe I guess you could see it that way. But it doesn't necessary have to be the whole system that is broken, and capitalism isn't necessary entirely bad. To address the issue specifically, in our current system, regulation, as wolf480pl suggested, could work, as it did in some ways in europe in terms of privacy protection. 🤷

@howl@social.zxq.co @lain@pleroma.soykaf.com @Wolf480pl@niu.moe regulations are an out-of-capitalism mechanism. It just shows the problem is capitalism in itself. The functions of capitalism leads to child labor, mass surveillance, and environmental disasters. This is empirically observable. Does it mean capitalism is broken? No. Not for the goals it is trying to achieve. Is it a tragedy for humans? Yes. But that's two different things.
