    I wish they would correctly name these stupid things an “inconvenience” fee.

      Girl is tired of capchas, junk fees, and other irritations when using big tech apps and websites, she then fights and kills the physical manifestation of all of those annoyances. But it turns out that there’s a large fee for killing the physical manifestation of those annoyances. The central theme is that regardless of what you do, the big tech companies will get what they want in the end.

        I mean its kind of nonsense because ive never and will never paid a convenience fee, mostly making me download an app is inconvenient enough to get me to not use a given service. But also because the only downside to taking out the ‘physical manifestations’ of these bullshit hypercapitalist scams would be a better world for all of us.

      Greed beast, a physical manifestation of the greed (for money and your personal data) from the company being interacted with on the phone
