The man said they discovered that their parents’ coffee maker had generated far more traffic than they expected.

    The title is a bit dishonest, most of the data didn’t leave the local network. According to the article, sending this much data seem to have been a bug instead of intended design.

      Okay, but here me out. Maybe coffee makers shouldn’t have a way to generate data.

What is enshittification?

The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

The lifecycle of Big Internet

We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.

Embrace, extend and extinguish

We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
