You're pretty brainwashed. There's nothing at all scary about privatized garbage collection.

I'm sure a vc would approve an ewaste app that sorts your trash and recycling for you! They just go through your trash to see what products you buy, how often you go through them and be sure to share that data with their advertising partners!

Edit:the point is they want to sell your data, not that we need someone to filter our recycling; but I feel the love.

A universal recycling machine can be made at any time. It just costs too much energy and consumables to make it worth it.

We have a municipal garbage service and they already use a combination of collection workers and cameras to reject recycling bins which have non recyclables. They'll leave you a note about it and everything.

The fuck? I literally live in a place with private collection. Its cheap and none of this is an issue.

Each one speaks from their own perspective and experience.
