    This article is unbelievably awful, but fun because of how wrong it is.

    TL;DR Industry insiders aren't going to save anyone from anything. Tweaking around with "screen time" or interface design or adding extra "street cred" from a younger generation doesn't address any of the real problems with Sillicon Valley.

    If any of these rich morons were actually sincere they would have to abandon their business models and start again with federated and distributed systems with no data concentration. But of course they're not going to do that.
