Phones are ridiculously expensive now. I was always buying the best phone growing up, but now it’s absolutely not worth it. People pay for great cameras, essentially, and then post most of their pics on social media where they are compressed and converted from the original image anyway.
People can rise up at any time and start destroying the machines that guard them.
It’s not bad enough yet but at some point, people won’t accept it anymore. Probably when they have almost nothing left to fight for.
