Cory Doctorow vs Molly White #Quotes

#Enshittification comes naturally from capital invested or *the leverage* from capital invested?

(framed as "vs" just to get some reply points from people and potential answers about comment below...)

Molly says
"Cory Doctorow provides his perspective on Bluesky, including on their recent funding round. I particularly like his point: “Plenty of people have commented that now that a VC is holding Bluesky's purse-strings, enshittification will surely follow (doubly so because the VC is called ‘Blockchain Capital,’ which, at this point, might as well be ‘Grifty Scam Caveat Emptor Capital’). But I don't agree with this at all. It's not outside capital that leads to enshittification, it's leverage that enshittifies a service.”
