@realcaseyrollins It looks like they're rioting because the government banned popular social media services.
Yup, enshitification is literally the law, but muh capitalisms!
Also note that the limited liability corporate structure itself is a government fiction (invented by the British government for the east india company), not a market innovation. There is no capitalist mechanism to privatize profits while socializing liability, so in a true free market you would probably not even have megacorps to begin with, because the liability load would be a natural limiting factor.
@wowaname @chris @nicholas @gerrymcgovern Lately, I've been thinking that those "Late Stage techniques" are a result of the Ford v Dodge ruling which requires all publicly-traded companies to prioritize shareholders above all else. Just look how Valve is able to prioritize long-term growth because they are not publicly traded. Honestly, I think the situation would be much better if the Ford v Dodge ruling was repealed, even though I think it's unlikely to happen anytime soon.
@wowaname @chris @nicholas @gerrymcgovern Mises and Rothbard were against intellectual property laws.
