There's this type of bias (I forget the name, I think it's availability heuristic?) where you overthink things to a point that it becomes the central point of your thought and think that everything is going downhill.
That's not at all a solution to any sort of systemic issue.
Whenever people choose/buy a hardware device or the software they use, they collectively shape the landscape of products.
The people who want less locked digital life might choose GNU/Linux as operating system or MNT Reform as hardware device as an example. As social network they might choose Mastodon over twitter/fb/insta.
That's just obsession.
There's also Negativity Bias, but that's not a process, just a particular reason for believing one particular thing (as are all biases). That said Negativity Bias, IMHO is built into human cognition. Loss Aversion is one type.
