A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator YouTube video by Forbrukerrådet - Norwegian Consumer Council

My neighbour stopped by to be sure that I had seen this, so maybe you need to see it too? www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4Up...

A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator

Wenn ihr mal jemandem das Konzept von #enshittification erklären wollt: Dieses Video der norwegischen Verbraucherzentrale bringt es in 3 Minuten auf den Punkt.

A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator YouTube video by Forbrukerrådet - Norwegian Consumer Council

L'Office norvégien de la protection du consommateur a produit une vidéo vraiment pertinente (et très drôle) à propos de la manière dont nos vies numériques «s'emmerdifient», gracieuseté du GAFAM (pour reprendre l'expression popularisée par Cory Doctorow).

In addition publishing the 100-page report in English, Norway's #Forbrukerrådet consumer council commissioned a short – and hilarious – film about the problem from #NewsLab. It's called "A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator"

"Make people dependent enough, and then make it shitty"

Still giggling at this hilarious video from the Norwegian Consumer Council "A Day in the Life of an Ensh*ttificator" which seems a perfect embodiment of Silicon Valley and tech generally these days

Ok, I just found the actual report from the Norwegian Consumer Council (Forbrukerrådet) — brimming with an incredible amount of puns. I don't think I've ever actually genuinely laughed while reading a government report before...

A new report by our member the Norwegian Consumer Council shows how digital products and services are getting worse as soon as you got used to them. Consumers need stronger protections against such practices!

Watch their new video and read the report to find out how we can counteract this trend📱⬇️

Sadly, it was taken down from Reddit. As someone wrote, swear words are now a premium feature.

Takk skal du ha!

Wow. That’s great!

Absolutely. Good point!

Thank you very much for that!!

10. In Norway, 50+ orgs & experts are calling for the public sector to reduce its dependence on big tech.
Across Europe, the UK and the US, consumers groups & other partners are also reaching out to their governments and policymakers with similar demands: to create a better digital future.

9.
• Rebalance the power between service providers and consumers.
• Reduce European dependency on big tech by supporting other technologies and services.
• Double down on the enforcement of existing laws, including but not limited to the DMA & the GDPR.
• Adopt a strong Digital Fairness Act.

8. Today we are taking international action. Together with 28 other civil society organisations, we are warning the European institutions against the ongoing deregulatory agenda of the Digital Omnibus Package, and urge them to:

7. We need vigorous enforcement of the laws we already have. Stronger sanctions to make sure that our laws actually deter big tech. This includes actively using merger control and structural remedies, and truly benefit competition and innovation.

6. We need new concrete plans and funding schemes for open-source alternatives to big tech. The public sectors across Europe (and beyond!) should in any case shift their spending from big tech’s proprietary software to open alternatives

4. We believe that consumers deserve stronger protections against enshittification practices.

We are advocating for other types of technology, based on e.g. open source code, open protocols, interoperability, and portability. It is time to build the foundation of a new, better digital world.

Pook that looks like an industrial cable with a screen in front of it

3. Enshittification is everywhere, from feeds filled with ads and scams, to connected cars where you have to pay extra for basic features.

When companies can change products and services at any time, consumers are held at their mercy.
