“Writer and critic Maris Kreizman calls this the “bulletpointification” of books and believes it is endemic to a tech culture that fetishizes optimization. “It seems to me that there is a fundamental discrepancy between the way readers interact with books and the way the hack-your-brain tech community does. A wide swath of the ruling class sees books as data-intake vehicles for optimizing knowledge rather than, you know, things to intellectually engage with.”

“Save your soul, acquire print books (Sonnet 2434) I once wrote, save trees, buy ebooks; since then a couple of things have come to light. You can lose access to the ebooks you purchase, anytime the platform decides to remove them. However, the most heinous case of all is that, it's only a matter of time that platforms quietly start altering existing literature, like they are already doing to streaming. Nature will endure the loss of a few trees in the sacred cause of mind expansion, but no amount of energy conservation can make up for doctored consciousness. The minor dent on nature for literature is nothing compared to the species level damage that looms, once existing literature starts getting doctored by crooks. Ebooks, audiobooks, the choice is yours, but always acquire print copies of your cherished books.”
