"The internet didn't enshittify because we got the wrong people. The old good internet had lots of companies, founded by mediocre cowards, who would have bought out their competitors, or dirty tricked them out of existence in a heartbeat.
The internet didn't enshittify because we got the wrong technology. The old good internet had plenty of sticky traps and walled gardens.
The internet enshittified because we got the wrong *rules*."
