Nice write-up by Jeff.

Things are getting out of hand. It’s time for a change. Only buy equipment with local access.

    Oh! The IOT toaster, perhaps a really good analogy! That was a good read and fitting for this situation.

    When was it published? 2019/2020 ?? Well, took just 5 years for the corporate greed to get on par.

      What made the story so captivating for me is how dystopian yet extremely close to present day reality it is.

      Of course that’s what he does: takes already existing situations and weaves them into something eye-opening.
