Summary | The new rising technology firms like Facebook, Airbnb, and Uber are the new class of rentiers. The do not create anything new, they claim control over goods and services and cash in on transactions made on the platform they provide. That is all they do: provide a platform. It is only profitable because people willingly share content and offer their services on these sites. But these firms also have not invented the technology (internet, computer devices, etc.): that technology was developed with the tax payer's money. So technically they are just selling and reselling already existing goods - like a rentier.

Other signs that your relationship is increasingly serious are when you text each other during day time not to make plans but to check in or share something, when your significant other's family want to befriend you on social media, when you appear in each other's Instagrams, when you make your relationship official on Facebook, or when you send each other nude selfies.
