In these years we're seeing the big tech industry showing its true face: the issues and dangers of mainstream social media are well known by the broader society, "apps" are becoming more broken, bloated and riddled with trackers with every passing day, everything is becoming a subscription service, they're showing down our throats an expensive, polluting and often mediocre technology threatening to take most of our jobs with it... it was inevitable that these conditions spurred a backlash or how media calls it a #techlash.

I belive that's good, it was about time to wipe out most of the naivety many had towards big tech but its saddeing that the pendulum is already swinging in the opposite direction and nowadays many perceives all digital technology as the enemy and calls for getting rid of most of it dreaming of a Butlerian Jihad.

I'm a late 90s kid grew up during the Frutiger Aero era, one of my all time favourite movies is "Tron: Legacy" and I have lots of heartfelt memories of all the experiences and adventures that were possible only because of videogames.

In an era of #techlash and calls to #decomputing I still believe that computing can be a force for good, that the soft glow of an LCD or CRT screen can brighten some of your dull days, that sometimes the friendly words and interactions you need can arrive trough TCP/IP and that the virtual has the potential of significantly enhance (and not replace) the real life.

Like Tron I wanna fight for users.
