Ive seen this said a lot here lately, but like, cloud computing still requires computer hardware, so shouldnt an increase in hardware prices make that more expensive as well?
They aren't gonna make it free, your still gonna have to pay and likely more in monthly service/rental fees and hardware. If my theory is correct, they want you to settle for less while they control the hardware, host all the services, manipulate all the data and surveil everyone's movement and conversations. All this made easier with a central hub cloud computing the plebes are forced into due to manufactured scarcity.
Chromebooks are/were a thing and Micro$lop has windows on arm devices.
