That was the point. It's just slavery with more steps.

Except you seem to conveniently forget that both the Internet and Tor were created by US government money and military, the Department of Defense and DARPA+US Navy respectively.
It's only bad when the everyone else started using those technologies is my point, creating and spreading the disease and offering the cure afterwards.
We should totally let them do it: you don't own the device, but they have to repair it for free for 3 years, no matter what, because it's theirs and not yours.
Reminds me of the Sega Saturn. One of the first 3D consoles, but horrible to use and make for devs for many reasons but the biggest was one simple reason: "polygons" are all quadrilaterals, not triangles. That really hindered any 3D that would have been planned. This goes into the same reason that will keep coming up on this topic: triangle polygons work better and faster than everything else people have tried.
There's a reason why I always browse at -1 even if the comments are full of spam. To see how hard someone has to try to hurt someone thinking that it would validate their life over a comment section. Also so I can point at that, and say: "I would never let myself get this horrible over a harmless message."
The special sauce is Google Play Store. It gets, installs and updates apps for you, and updates automatically. Linux does have package managers but they work differently and independently depending on the distro, and Ubuntu variants have a dedicated update manager that does similar things but they're not consistent, just look at the list of package managers: dpkg apt pacman flatpak snappy rpm and they're not compatible or interchangeable except maybe flatpak and snappy, which usually works on most systems fine. Steam, snappy and flatpak work more like Google Play and Steam's ease of use would make it more like Google Play, and ease of use is the main issue here: if you have to go to the command line people will balk at it.
Let's see how well your mental health is when you're restricted to only a couple rooms for almost 7 years.
Except a real picture of a black hole would be impossible and it doesn't have any dimension shape anyway, except it exists as a point in space with obscene amounts of mass. Its area of effect would be a sphere, correct, but since it's so mass filled that not even light can escape, trying to look at a black hole is pointless, because it's a point in space that bends everything to itself, even space, time and light.
Osmand. The version on https://f-droid.org/ not the Google Play Store version. Free to download forever, uses openstreetmap.org data.
You ever look into history? The reason we write things down is because it is or was important. "On the internet" doesn't change much with writings except the method of writing.
Just like what another poster said, the Internet Archive respects robots.txt and will retroactively delete a site if you set it that way.
Also even though the written texts are on a different medium, digitally versus paper, some writings will hold huge historical value; to suggest otherwise would be akin to burning books because they're "blasphemous" or something similar, and while you might want that for your own data most people would want this historical backup, especially scholarly sites like Wikipedia and the public domain books that can be distributed freely forever.
Slightly on topic, and just posting this here for visibility:
This study was done with the premise of only screens, nighttime usage and specifically adolescence mental wellbeing. There has been a lot of studies but ruling the technology itself out can be helpful so care can be placed properly.
The CONTENTS or more specifically, the usage, of the screen might still be harmful, i.e social media use and mental health[1], video game use and lack of sleep and mental health[2], etc.

The main reason I use it is just this one service by itself: https://ifttt.com/applets/1952...
That one automatically puts in your Google calendar the expected delivery date of every product ordered.
https://hardware.slashdot.org/... this is the last time it was mentioned: over a year ago. I'm not sure where you are getting this idea from.
