Commercialization of everything.

That's what inevitably happens when you give a mega corp like Google all of that power over you, your life, and your data by simply using their products. Ultimately, they then get to decide who you are and how you act. And it's in their benefit to shape everything, including you, in their corporate image.

People don't notice how much they're getting fucked on an individual basis until the consequences of the actions of millions or billions of people adds up and comes back around in the form of something stupid and obvious like Manifest V3, SEO everywhere, WEI, or the doublespeak "privacy sandbox" comes to bite you in the ass. Enshittification everywhere and even then most people still don't care.

We're their cattle and we're choosing to walk into a slaughterhouse with our eyes wide open. In more ways than one. As fun as the game is, I really do not want to actually live in Cyberpunk.
