And yet somehow it was fine all this time?

Virtually nothing in "user land" is politically neutral but I would think/hope that the underlying technology and protocols have a large degree of neutrality.

Case in point, I'd see something like AWS as a neutral utility, kind of like electricity. You can do lots of bad stuff with electricity but your electricity provider doesn't care.

That idea of separation of concerns is now completely broken down, the entire stack, top to bottom, is political.




You "get along" until you don't. What better moment would be for that than a war?
