    This is actually perfect in that enshittification is exactly like death: it comes for everyone or in the context of technology, everything.

    There is no popular product or service that doesn’t eventually get the enshittification treatment to squeeze more blood from the stone.

      Not quite, I don’t think. Enshittification is driven by profit motive, which means if there’s no money at all involved, then there’s no motive.

      I guess you chose your words carefully though because the terms ‘product’ and ‘service’ pretty much imply that money is involved somewhere there.
