The Olympics on NBC is a perfect example of enshittification. So, things used to air in real time. You'd hop on and watch if stuff was on. Then in primetime, they'd show the highlights.
Now they've moved everything to Peacock. If you have an antenna, you just get the highlights. 🧵

It occurs in 20-30% of post-pubertal boys and men who contract mumps.
