Soon they will be irrelevant anyway.
There is no limit to growth. Innovation is unlimited. Space seems to be unlimited, too.

This original silent majority was a victim of Soviet propaganda. Nothing is better in war when the enemy no longer wants to fight because he has self-doubt.
Re:1Password Legitimizing Blockchain on Monday February 28, 2022 @12:24PM (#30502374)
Yes, blockchain money is scam (with no intrinsic value. Its value only comes from its potential for someone to voluntarily give me something useful in return).

But: modern central bank money has the same problem. The only difference: a government could force someone to exchange something useful for some paper.

Great idea!
Let's ban the good old mail service. There are many nasty and unpleasant people who use paper.

* DuckDuckGo instead of Google Search

* Bitchute / LBRY / Odyssee instead of YouTube

*Nextcloud instead of Google Drive

Re:The YouTube ban is un-American, wrong, and will backfire on Friday December 11, 2020 @04:59PM (#25391796)
Youtube is a private company and can therefore do what it wants with its property - the Youtube platform. However, it may be a bad decision to act as a Ministry of Truth while a number of court cases are still ongoing. Especially since the evidence presented in court proves electoral fraud - even if it is not entirely clear whether it is relevant enough to impact the outcome of the election.
