At best it's a way to see the world and experience new things, at worst it's sex slavery.
I'd be extremely careful, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I suspect that the answer depends entirely on who reports on it first. By the time the rest of the world has had time to catch up, the tone is already set.
For a related concept, consider the use of the phrase "domestic terrorism".
I moved country as a way to see the world. I left Nederland and started with Australia because I had an Australian passport. I was going to give it a year. I worked six months, was unemployed for 18, then got a three day gig that lasted for six and a half years.
That move was 35 years ago. I'm still in Australia. In the meantime I met my partner, travelled around the country for five years and started my own business 26 years ago.
I visited Nederland four years in, but it didn't feel like home.
It took many years for this to feel like home, from time to time I'd love to hug my family, but never felt homesick, I love watching YouTube videos of places where I grew up. I'll visit the local Dutch Shop to remember smells and tastes and to bullshit in Dutch, but otherwise I'll be doing my Aussie life.
I was born here, but grew up in Nederland.

Plex has been around for a while, long before "capitalism happened" as you put it. At the time it spawned a whole lot of different alternatives, it also triggered how we interact with our media libraries. I recall having to set-up my own server and client before I could start to import and manage my own media. That wasn't trivial, least of which caused by needing to rip DVD without the high speed access to internet acting as a source.
When I last played with this a decade or so ago, there were several map tiling solutions in the geosciences that are self hosted.
From memory, "World Wind" is a good search term, but there's others.
There's a thing called an Advanced Health Directive in Western Australia, legally outlining who and under what circumstances is permitted to make decisions on your behalf.
I would talk to your medical team and ask them how this works in your country. It's also when you discover what the cultural beliefs your team has and if they align with yours.
I'd be doing this sooner rather than later.
It's an interesting question, and I suspect that the differentiation is the same as it is for every other word where this happens, context.
In other words, language has many examples of words that are only differentiated in meaning by their context.
Bank, Drive, Company, Walk, Wind are all homonyms.
Seems that someone needs to re-watch Minority Report.
