Have you ever take a step back and wonder, how much your life depends on IT giants?
For example, if you are not in the USA, your life will likely be depending on Google Products. Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Keep, Google Search Engine, Google Chrome, Google Play Store (androids), Google Fit, Google Maps, Google Homes.
If you are in the USA, you will likely be depending on Apple Products. iphone, ipad, iclouds, safari, imessage.
If you are a PC user or a corporate worker, you will likely be depending on Microsoft products. Windows, Microsoft 365, Teams, Onedrive.
For social media, we somehow rely on Whatsapp, Facebook, Messenger, instagram.
Even on the server level, we are likely bound to them, from Azure to Amazon to Hetzner, either directly on indirectly.
And just imagine, if you get excommunicado in real life...
