I'm pretty sure this is all for datacenters.
The use case for individuals is going to be very low.

Datacenters have multiple levels of disk / storage "caching."
Though these drives are slow, they enable larger and larger libraries of data to be online.
Caching solutions can make the intelligent decisions on what data needs to be fetched, based on heuristics.

I've always wanted to do C or ASM coding, but never have been good enough to pass an interview, so instead I moved into QA debugging C and ASM code.
These days I've moved into system integration roles.

C/ASM roles were not abundant in the mid-2000s either, and they're even more scarce now. Now my skills are even more rusty, but I did like playing around with the Zachtronics games like TIS-100 :)

If I can't go 120 on the freeway, how about I just go 70 in a 55, or how about 60 in a 25, or 50 in a 10-15mph zone...
I guess the data for the oppressive tech is readily available in map products like Google / Apple / TomTom maps etc. All they have to do is have some hooks into the rev limiter and speed limiters.

My example is hyperbole, and there's probably more severe penalties for not sticking to the speed limit, but you think the lawmakers thought about this?
What about the true need for speed in an emergency?

Yeah, who knows if the new program now has malware, and is going to pr0n sites on your behalf, and generated Midjourney images and getting into your 1Password vault and grabbing all your account details since you don't have 2FA enabled to blackmail you from your job at Disney?

Influencers are too busy using the premium features without paying, or only paying one months worth so they can make a video, post to YouTube, gain their monthly revenue check, and then later on follow up with a scathing video about the subscription when they're out of cash.

Rinse and repeat with each product without actually being offended, and profit on all fronts.
