Every claim below was made in this piece, quoted word for word and numbered in the order the piece makes them, so you can read it there rather than take our word for it. The sentence above each quote is our reading of the claim, not their wording. Each quote was checked against a stored copy of the page at build time; where the two differ, the quote is the fact.

  1. Our reading

    Incompatible, walled-off vendor systems that refuse to interoperate are a form of enshittification.

    Their wordsall you need to know is that none of these systems talks to any of the others, which is enshittification in action.

  2. Our reading

    The early Web 2.0-era promise of universal API interoperability and user ownership of data and control never materialized.

    Their wordsI long for the halcyon days of early Web 2.0 when it was predicted that all APIs would work with everything and data and control would belong to the user. Oh well - that didn't happen.
