One of the problems is that many companies motives are so incredibly misaligned with society at large.

Google, Facebook, X are all explicitly designed to be addictive and provide as little value as possible. Because they want to give everything away for free in a way that keeps you on the site to maximise scraping your data so they can screw you over more later.

They are not even aligned at the most basic level. Everyone needs to stop using it. Or at least circumvent their measures.
