Google photos on ios is literally a hostage situation. Remove key functionalities like copying an image or editing an image unless you give them full unrestricted access to your entire photo library. (The holy grail of surveillance capitalism data). Data extortion masquerading as a service.

Did we just compare buying a certain brand of phone to being a serf? Really?

The answer to this strawman of yours is “no” though.

Are we looking at the same comic?

So you see the serf? Do you not get the connection that is being made?

Can you explain how my statement is a strawman, what exactly did I fabricate? Are they not showing the and concept throughout the ages and in different situations?

This comic lacks any nuance to push a ham fisted message.
