We've already seen this doesn't work anymore. We aren't capitalist anymore, there is no way for someone to create a disruptive technology and it take off anymore. The owners will be killed off or driven out of their company (gab, reddit, musk)

That's pretty much how Microsoft dealt with competition in the '90s. Open source worked before and it'll work again. The more (((they))) become an evil empire, the more people will work on open, censorship-resistant alternatives to spite them.

They'll shape up real fucking quickly if their 230 protections are removed.

That’s not idle chatter. He is currently working on a distributed personal storage and web software framework called Patchwork. Patchwork is designed to put data back in individual hands while allowing us to share it if we want. Instead of Facebook storing all of your data and deciding who can harvest it, you store it and allow each app to see only what it needs.
You could still get a popular social networking app that people hand too much data to, but at least it will be possible to build things that can’t collect as much data as Facebook or Google.

The home server thing is a great idea, but normies are too normie to be thier own sysadmin for a phone or a laptop, a server is a bridge too far methinks.

It is possible with phones. Just need multi ports for memory and open up cheaper 4g band width.
