     @arstechnica With all these services bundling up, when do we start cutting these cords? And what will that look like? I love that the actor in the image is wearing a "pirate" eye patch.

     @arstechnica We need a mobile and smart TV all targeted at decentralized media, fediverse maybe.

     Free the viewers to consume any media they like outside of a dedicated walled garden and without a middleman like YouTube.
