At some point, our public service will realise that, if it's suggested by Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Oracle, Salesforce, Adobe, Apple, Facebook, etc. it can be discounted immediately as a Very Bad Idea [R]. Until our bureaucrats understand that fact, they should be prohibited from making any digital policy or procurement decisions.
The same goes for every single scrap of advice from the #BigFour consulting firms. They're feathering their own nest, & that of their biggest customers (see above).
@lightweight@mastodon.nzoss.nzWe need to start dismantling the entirely enshittified digital infrastructure from which those foreign corporations have profited so immensely (at levels previously not seen in the world outside of colonial exploitation) at our expense.
Any observer of the digital status quo in our gov't can tell you that the benefits have not be mutual. We've paid monopoly rents for shockingly low quality software services & solutions.
