Create enough momentum the confirmation bias will just magically convince everyone, eh? Please step back and look at this objectively. You sound extremely paranoid.
Your first paragraph suggests that AGW advocates are conspiring for a particular industry. But there are very few industries that benefit from AGW. Certainly those industries can't afford the price tag to fix the scientific consensus. Especially not when opposed by the pretty much every industry out there.
Or why not just have your AI assistant answering the phone calls from the other AIs. It's the peak of bloated, inefficient, and overly expensive ordering systems. I write systems that can place hundreds of orders a second. These new AI systems will be able to place one order every one hundred seconds.
If we were making "progress", shouldn't we have fewer problems now instead of more? I'd say, changes would just happen slower. But then, who knows. When people stop fearing death and become more financially secure, perhaps we'll all suddenly stop being assholes too.
In Internet, governments can trace dissenting posts back to users.
In Internet, governments can spread propaganda more effectively.
In Internet, government surveillance has become rampant.
Remember when we all thought that the internet was the great democratizer bringing free speech to the world and was going to rout out corruption whenever it lid?
It's obvious that a coke machine giving out free cokes is malfunctioning and you're receiving a product you didn't pay for. It's not obvious though that changing a few lines of a URL to download a different set of data is a crime, if it even is. Changing the URL a little is literally what every single web request is.
Your ISP is collecting your data. Your OS is collecting your data. Your search engine is collecting your data. Advertisers are collecting your data. Your browser is collecting your data. The NSA knows what I'm thinking before I do. So now everyone knows the size of my bank account, my shoes, and my dick. Hardly seems worth all the trouble. We've created this huge surveillance network ostensibly so they can market shit to me. Yet, I ignore 99% of the advertising that I see. And the network is predictably (also predictedly) leaky as fuck. Several of my unique passwords and all my identity information is probably floating around in dozens of nefarious databases. Are we better off?
Keeping a dream journal is usually sufficient to eventually experience the phenomenon. Start doing that (google it), and you'll probably have one within a few months. Don't be afraid of sleep paralysis or the waking up experiencing high pitched noises... those are associated phenomenon and indicators that you are lucid dreaming.
Astral travel is nothing more than a lucid dream with self imposed limits on the experience. You see yourself as travelling around on the astral plane because that's what you want to see. You can also have sex with a supermodel or captain a star ship if that's what you want. It's all in your head. There is just as much evidence of shared OOBEs as there is of telekinesis and telepathy...that is: none.
You don't just cross roads like that without looking while wearing black in the middle of the night.
I'm not even sure how the pedestrian missed the car. It's not like there was a lot of other things to look at in the darkness besides the very obvious headlights coming quickly at you.

I don't think Microsoft sees it that way.

or at least pass them to their own AI assistant

You need an email address for all ecommerce or any online account. There are better ways for that? What are they?
Don't they have better things to do than catching teens changing their grades?
A few decades?!?! Let's not go crazy.

Indeed. Pirates with lots of money are called corporations, not pirates.

These days, Libertarianism just means Plutocracy.
I've found most Medium.com posts seem to be like this.

Am I doing this right?
...92 percent of respondents are fucking idiots. Playing games doesn't make you a better hacker...writing code does.
Probably made more sense back when cars had terrible suspensions, no crumple zones, no safety glass, no seat belts, and tires as wide as sled runners.
isn't your OS responsible for "collecting' your data?
It is if you're running Windows 10.

On /., 80% of the posts are from Russian trolls and the other 20% are from people on the spectrum who missed the joke.

Astral travel and out of body experiences are the same thing. Maybe not if you play Dungeons and Dragons, but they are the same thing in practice.
