Now that Google , FB wants to trap us and control every aspect of the Internet browsing, Is it even possible to break free.

Or creating new Internet is a unrealistic idea ?

        I don’t believe that anybody seriously believes the incredibly thin obvious lie that China is not a capitalist state, just look at it xD

      This is, quite easily, one of the dumbest comments of all time.

      You are free to setup and run a server, and create whatever experience you’d like. With how cheap hosting is it would probably be free for you to do for quite a long time too.

      But you won’t, because you’re a consumer

        Not really. It’s the difference between sustainability and perpetual growth. The problem with all these services. Is that no mater where you tend to fall along them. There’s always someone below you gouging to make just a little more money. And everyone above them has to do the same to either make ends meet, or gouge and get their own growth. Capitalism at a basic level abhors sustainability. After all a CEO of a company can be fired for failing to maximize the company’s bottom line. Regardless of whether or not it was legal to do so or sustainable.

        People don’t ask themselves why things cost as much as they do. They simply assume that there’s a reason. And just absorb the hit. In terms of it and telecommunications. Processing power continues an unabated growth as well as Network transmission speed. Yet despite being able to handle more load and more traffic easily. Cost always goes up. It can’t even just stay the same for any length of time. And capitalism’s profit motive is solely to blame.
