Introduce cutting edge tech to the masses, claiming it will usher in a new era of connection, convenience and utility.
Firmly entrench that tech into every corner of modern society so that most day-to-day activities SUPPOSEDLY cannot be done without it.
Slowly tighten the screws by removing user agency and freedom while raising prices.
Become obscenely wealthy from an entire generation of locked-in consumers who think they have no choice but to submit to your control over their lives.
And yet none of my friends and family can see this blatantly right in front of them. Have people gotten stupider ? Its as obvious as the sun being hot.
