List #769: A Few Things About the Digital World that Bother Me a Lot


 A Few (among many) Things About the Digital World that Bother Me a Lot

1. the balkanization of media outlets (why can I buy DC comics from comixology's website, but not their "app")
2. privacy vs commerce  (I am Google's product)
3. idiots who write comments on youtube, amazon, etc. (no comment)
4. proprietary formats (this is better)
5. net neutrality being threatened 
6. the appification of the internet and the death of the web. 
7. leasing things in the cloud instead of having them
8. the "bleed" of the major tech companies in their quest for dominance (Facebook should not be a search engine, Google should not be a social networking site,  apple should make cool devices,  Amazon should sell content and products)
