Can you give an example of a company that doesn’t want to control that kind of data? The data of what their players can and can’t do in their game?
are you sure it’s in your best interest as a consumer to be against decentralization and FOR corporatism?
One thing has nothing to do with the other. At no point in my previous comments I argued for centralized corporatism. I merely stated the obvious: game companies, even smaller ones, want to control their data in a centralized manner, because they have literally nothing to gain from decentralizing it. You trying to frame it as me defending corporate centralization makes no sense.
These things absolutely have to do with one another because you and I, as consumers, can vote for systems ::gestures around the fediverse:: (like the current one we’re on right now!) that eschew corporate cash-grabs and allow our data to be decentralized. Corporations don’t want that because they literally rely on locking you into their ecosystem. But we all know how ill-fated locked ecosystems end up. ::Gestures at Reddit and Twitter.::
Please, do quote the part where -I- defended corporate centralization, where I said anything that could be interpreted as “corporate centralization of data is good and I like it”. Stating a fact (companies don’t want to decentralize their data) is not the same as defending it.
Also waiting on this
