Source URL returned 403, but web search verified the exact quote from Cory Doctorow's pluralistic.net article "The enshittification multiverse" (April 27, 2026), also republished on Medium. Vote "for" statement "Digital services deteriorate as they scale up" aligns with Doctorow's well-known enshittification thesis applied here specifically to AI products. Year 2026 is current.
