You've got it backwards. For most of history it was the other way around. We got to see a brief tantalizing glimpse of it in the 'oughties and naughties, and then the people who's lifestyle depends on an exploitable workforce got scared and decided that was enough freedom for the peons

There's an axiom I don't know the provenance of:

"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into"

It's not about the truth to them it's about making the scary unknown go away so they can get on with their lives. Nevermind the fact that their ignorance is causing their own demise and that of everyone else....

It takes an emotional shock, most of the time, to break that kind of deathgrip on a false reality

You know valve isn't Microsoft right? Those are two different companies with different agendas?

Steam asking for consent for a survey doesn't make up for the lack of consent in updates pushed by an entirely different entity
