Absolutely brilliant campaign (in English) by the Norwegian Consumer Council.

Ironic that to share the link while maintaining privacy you have to remove the tracker part of the YouTube URL:

https://youtu.be/T4Upf_B9RLQ?si=zwiYcppZhG5zR6v2

becomes https://youtu.be/T4Upf_B9RLQ

Strange, in my post the link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4Upf_B9RLQ without tracker I think. You get the shorter youtu.be form?

Sorry, this wasn't about you specifically. I didn't even check when I clicked it! I just meant when you share the video about enshittification (from within YouTube), it adds the tracker to the URL...

Yeah it does :( I always have to edit it manually before sharing...

I wish the Council posted also on the Fediverse. Maybe one can point them here.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
