JavaScript isn’t the problem; the business model of Silicon Valley is. Web developers aren’t “terrible at their craft”; they excel at it. It just so happens that under surveillance capitalism their craft is to build sites that track and profile you. Needs systemic change to fix.https://twitter.com/twbtwb/status/1002421587667136512 …

Unfortunately you are wrong. Silicon Valley is much bigger than just ad-tech driven media/web. Let’s not onflate that with companies focused on tough stuff. I don’t think you can absolve traditional media/pubs from their role in helping make surveillance capitalism so pervasive.

I look forward to seeing the non-VC funded, decentralised, free/open, interoperable & non-surveillance-based technologies that come to define Silicon Valley in the future. Until then, all I have to go on is what has already been funded/built/is celebrated/& defines the ideology.
