The media doesnt mind us stuck in our homes, absorbing every damn map and data point they spew out, and Im sure Google, Apple, and Microsoft dont mind us gobbling up all their stupid streams and shows.

even if you want to be super cynical about the media, you have to recognize that mass media companies are spiderwebbed through by endless amounts of interest groups and sponsors who are very unhappy about this.

Google, Apple and Microsoft are not happy about people having less disposable income to spend on their products, and streams and shows are not making up for that loss of profit. Microsoft has been weathering it surprisingly well so far but Google and Apple have taken huge stock plunges throughout the course of this stuff

the capitalist death machine is maybe the least feasible group of people to point the finger to here if you want to blame someone other than common sense, i have no idea how you stumbled to that conclusion and thought it sounded good in your head. if you want to try and scapegoat someone, the only sensible people to try and foist blame onto is doctors and the medical community at large because everyone is currently going off of their advice. i understand why you would not want to do that though, it would be pretty embarrassing
