That's some good insight. As to your question as to what's next, what I think needs to happen more than anything is a hard reset on tech. The Intel backdoors and ME and "bugs"/features that allow full access to the stack show that the most essential components are compromised at the hardware level. You can't patch that.
Hopefully the rise of 3D printing will, eventually, allow for the printing of silicon in-house, using open source hardware designs designed among a non-pozzed meritocracy. And, with that, comes a chance to start over from scratch regarding just about everything, from the OS to the assembly it is written on.
But like you said, (((some people))) will not allow this to happen without a fight. MS already makes life miserable with their patent bullshit, it won't get any easier when both hardware and software go open source and decentralised.

That is not going to happen, ever. Our silicon chips have features at near atomic scale. It won't be a 3D printer when there is something capable of constructing things atom by atom. It most assuredly will not be allowed into the hands of the public.
