This is happening to normal folks with small businesses too. I have some friends who are being targeted by google and fb, for no good reason as they’re completely in the dark. We need to decentralize the web yesterday.

Now everyone thinks they’re geniuses too just because they can google random facts. You should talk faster than they can type just to keep having fun at their expense. Also, if you talk long enough chances are very good that you’ll find something they’re unable to easily google it. Most people are still lazy thinkers anyways.

It’s not a generation thing. The joke is the OP is obviously not six. We know that because most six year olds can’t come up with such an artifact to set the timeframe of an article. For more references on jokes like this read MAD. ;)

Yes, there is a thing that almost guarantees things in the future will materialize, it’s called a contract. People and businesses have been dealing in futures for centuries. For instance, Italian banks have special vaults for Parmigiano Reggiano taken as collateral. If some of their customers didn’t have access to these tools they probably would’ve gone out of business long ago, and we’d all have lost access to great cheese.

They’re just tools, as such expected to be held the wrong way by some people.

PS: I had a lot of fun developing an accounting system for a client that needed to solve exactly this problem :)

One could argue they’re just following local laws. Though it won’t make any difference because their brand carries such weight and status that I find it will be almost impossible to vote it out with our wallets. We’d better shut up and just accept the new truth from our self appointed feudal masters.

Run fsck on your disk. I had the same problem, digging into it I found APFS had hopelessly corrupted my disk, its snapshots, and the time machine backups. In the process I not only lost mail and other files, but I had unexpected app crashes and casual kernel panics. Once I found the corrupted files I had to log in into single user mode to remove them as I couldn’t even as root when logged as usual. Don’t forget to delete your APFS snapshots, if you don’t the problem will quietly sneak in again. After that you’re safe to make a new snapshot and a new backup.

Why didn’t Apple just give us ZFS instead of the shitshow APFS is?
