The terms look almost incoherent, which may be the point.
“If you are a professional, if you are under NDA with your clients, if you are a creative, a lawyer, a doctor or anyone who works with proprietary files – it is time to cancel Adobe, delete all the apps and programs. Adobe can not be trusted.”
Anyway, what the #enshittification team at

Me: Hmm, maybe I should look into Bun again and see how its Node.js compatibility is coming along.
Also me: I wonder who makes Bun…
Me, yet again: Ah, it’s a venture-capital funded startup called Oven (see what they did there?)
Finally, me: rm -rf ~/.bun
(Remember, kids: Venture capital is the fart that precedes enshittification. It’s best not to linger once you’ve caught a whiff of it.)

YouTube deterioration
New enshittification just dropped?
Reading Fedi stuff (on Android phone).
Clicked a link to YouTube.
Ad starts playing.
Decided I didn't want to watch it, so hit "back" button back to Fedi.
Ad continues playing, in a small rectangle.
Exited to the phone's home page.
Ad _continues_ playing! No X in the corner to close it! WTF?
Solution: Had to click on the video to enlarge its rectangle to make the X visible.
YouTube hijacked my phone!

Glassdoor data privacy shenanigans
From comments:
"Gotta make it look like Fishbowl has tons of accounts? Just make everyone with a glassdoor account also a fishbowl user. Nevermind that one is designed for anonymity and the other isn't, let's just make glassdoor hostile to anonymity. What could possibly go wrong?"
"The best way to protect sensitive information is to not collect it in the first place."

I joke about Data on Star Trek TNG responding as a search engine when he should respond like social media; instead of spew tabled info, they'd use subspace transmissions to contact living expertise networks. "What do you make of this?" "Nebula Research at Rigel 12 suggest contacting Talos IV…"
Sadly our enshittification of search underlines my notion: by the TNG era no educated human would conceive of trusting search.
Data, what IS the big dot I can toggle in column 1 in #Emacs #OrgRoam? 🤣
