i dont know what else i can say, im going by my learned experience. a sober assessment is we need to be revived, because we have been made comatose. You can't fix this imv, by appealing to the lieks of CAGeMAFIA and the govt they will squash the alternatives. u say that there are indy datacenters, i dont see them, and honestly in today's world i wouldnt be able to trust them anyway. look at how many shell companies us, uk eu-backed israwl made to fool people they were getting a good device, when actually it was laced with explosives.
How bad is it? We can't outsource the production of our computers, we need computers that are made BY the civilisations that will use them, this is how bad it has gotten. in the same way i dont see an alternative to having our computers under our control the whole time and not outsourcing to a third party, and especially not one poisoning people and planet.
if you dont trust with your life, every person that walks into that datacenter u have a problem. this likely means there will NOT BE mega killer global apps in the future.... and good, those things have been fascist in every sense of the word 'fascist'.
the architecture of how we compute things is going to dictate whether we can be revived.
