… there are only other people’s computers.

When you are using their “cloud services”, you are surrendering yourself to them. You give them your data, you pay them even. You are completely dependent. When they decide to increase the prices – you’ll pay. When they tell you your content is inappropriate – you’ll jump and alter it to their likings. They track you and your users, build profiles, sell them to people you don’t even want to know. They use your data to train their LLMs and other generative models without even asking you. They have full control over your business. They control you!

The internet has given you the chance to become free – and yet you decided to become their slave.

Isn’t that sad?
