The article itself is pretty good, but “techno-authoritarian” is pretty meaningless. For most, I tend to describe it as techno-feudalism. Authoritarianism is a vague term that just means a certain group has authority. Totalitarianism means the group has total authority. Techno-feudalism is a reemergence of owners of private capital existing as the state. Because that’s mostly their goal. It was super obvious with Zuckerberg’s metaverse plans
