Another great article from 404 Media highlighting the power that the tech giants have amassed over how how we use the internet.

This brings me, I think, to the elephant in the room, which is the fact that Google has its hands on quite literally every aspect of this entire saga as a vertically integrated adtech giant.

This extreme power over the adtech and online advertising ecosystem is one of the subjects of an FTC antitrust suit against Google.

      Yes. I see it like using a custom android ROM, it couldn’t exist without Google but its the most private I can be while not going without. I do watch as many creators as possible via Nebula, though.
