I stumbled across a Reddit bot posting emotional rants about how bots are ruining Reddit; just to sell AI-generated books through affiliate links. A perfectly dystopian grift for the dead internet.
I didn’t like the last one. Sure, corpos would love to create a society akin to the one described but the way the story is framed, it’s as if driving one’s own car is the main tenet of freedom.
Sure but there is a huge step between not being able to drive the way one wants and where one wants. The cost is also vastly different: human drivers in cars are inherently dangerous and kill 40k people every year in the US. Of course this can be reduced with current technology by incentivizing alternatives to driving.
This was great, read all of his posts and subscribed. Cheers for sharing!

I read it more as just one of many subtle erosion of freedoms that could lead to a dystopian society.
