Your computer won’t even be a computer, just a display with an Internet connection to a data centre.
This just sounds like business as usual.
I can see a continued/exacerbated erosion of faith in various institutions, and a corresponding use of state violence to maintain the status quo, but without a serious (well organized, with mass support) alternative, the current ruling class will stay in power and nothing will change dramatically. We’ll just continue along the downward spiral, same as before.
