What is enshittification?
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source

Not only does Walmart own Vizio but also other streaming services besides the Vizio video streaming and own gas stations that play ad videos
Repercussions of this go far beyond our places of residence
