Oh cool, ecofascism. The unsustainable practices we have are what’s killing the planet, not the scale of human lives specifically. And as long as that doesn’t change, we have no future.

I hope you’re an early adopter, given the level of resolve you have towards this.

Is profit at any cost morally irresponsible?

No, it’s the consumers who are wrong.

If you’re worried about creators, support them via their patreons or what means they determine. They aren’t making much directly from YouTube, and their support streams are more certain that way.

Not sure any of us should, tbh

So you see this as specifically a tiktok problem and not a tech problem? Do you think it won’t/hasn’t happened elsewhere, and will be only a tiktok problem? I don’t use tiktok, or care about it but I feel like every problem with it is something endemic to social media platforms run by businesses atm.

Bad business model, innit.

The worst bit is, it seems like the CMA will negotiate with them. This might be well and truly over.
