roses are red
violets are blue
in surveillance capitalism
poem reads you
and shows you ads
for flower shops
and tracks your clicks
and never stops
it cares not about
if privacy's harmed
the money is green
when people are farmed
twitter is cyan
facebook is blue
your friends are the product
and so are you

Maybe you've heard of the inverse square law.
But what is an inverse square anyway?
Easy. It's just like a regular square, except the space between the four lines is the outside, and everything else is the inside :y
Gravity happens because all matter in the universe lives in fear of the inverse square, so it huddles together for warmth and comfort 😌

looking at the fediverse and saying "I don’t see how this product scales over time" is usually a sign that you’ve looked at the fediverse but you haven’t really seen it.
hint: this isn’t a product and neither are you.
