We didn’t need more proof of enshitification of the internet but hete it is. A super cool bit of history and its main point online is to sell massproduced feetware.

The other day I learned about Peter Sunde his Kopimashin art project. I tried to find what became of it since because the plan was to make 13 and exhibit them in a musea and they theoretically would Bankrupt the music industry over a while. Yet the only information about it i can find is sensational articles from back then when it was just 1.
