Get rid of all lock in or network affect. In investing it might be called moat. Looking to destroy like Facebook. Very hard to compete due to they have all the users. You can't just choose your chat app, you also be on the same network as your friends. Decouple those two. Another example is YouTube. They are the biggest video provider and thus will reach most users. Decouple those two again. I can continue with Microsoft apps, Netflix videos, Google search and ads etc.
Without possibilities for real competition, you dont get innovation.

Socialism and planned economy, ban on private enterprises
Not only does it aim to stop neverending inequality shift and enshittification, it also helps to save Earth by putting an end to overproduction and bullshit consumerism
No motivation to do better leads to stagnating tech evolution. If you remove private business you stagnate
We might fancy a little stagnation if you look around
Depends of the sector i guess
There is motivation to do better - inventors are praised and financially rewarded, and those who successfully apply new tech are too.
Sure, an inventor won't turn billionaire, but he also won't run a risk of losing it all trying to apply said invention. Market actually scares many off, it's not simply a land of opportunities.
This. Think of Bill gates, and think of Linus Torvalds. Inspiration to make money can only do so much. There'd be a lot more people making awesome stuffs today if large corps didn't just buy any small tech company making anything that could be used. Sometimes they buy them and use it, sometimes they buy is and then ensittify it so people will have no choice but to use things they want.

Welcome to the electric chair, 'mate'. Oopsies
all media and advertising shall have the same loudness
We already have standards for media, we would just have to enforce them more rigorously.
I think the capital punishment would be enforcement enough; don't you?
Kill the violators of the standard, resuscitate them and kill them again!
