The reason users dont know what they are doing is because corporations simplified the computer to such a degree that users do not need to learn anything about them to begin with.
The current implementation of data centers are inheritly capitalistic. They are not there for anything other than profit. There is no reason not to educate people on what they are actually doing when they connect to the internet, other than profit and power.
There is no reason for me to want a data center to exist in its current form. I will continue to be against them being built until we see them being used for good. (lmfao, good luck in this economy)
100%. This started with mass adoption of the smartphone in like 2013. Hot take but I think the world would have been better if we never let “normies” on the internet so easily. But you can’t really put the genie back in the bottle now
I miss the days when the only thing my datacenter was used for was the public library, the hospital, and for processing research. But it is what it is.
At least I get to maintain a node for Internet Archives.
I dont necessarily agree that people shouldnt have been allowed. It would have been better to educate people on what they are using and how it can be used. I will give you credit on missing when data centers were used for something good. Not how I expected this interaction to end but I’ll take it.
