We need to fix the internet, not the tech giants. The problem isn't just that Zuck is really bad at being the unelected pope-emperor of the digital lives of 3,000,000,000 people - it's that the job of "pope-emperor of 3,000,000,000 people" should be abolished. 7/

Facebook and Twitter are profoundly culpable. A future at their mercy is intolerable. They must permanently end Trump’s access to the global info bloodstream. Jan 20 is not enough. They don’t have to love democracy, just cravenly respond to new political winds. @FBoversight 2/3

"We desperately need omnibus privacy legislation that stops companies like Facebook from harvesting people’s data and using it to micro-target hate and lies directly into the minds of people most susceptible to them."

The echo chamber is the thing. Again, we've all been talking about it for a while but we're realizing the insane, brutal, tribal power of it now. And *it will get worse* if we don't redouble our efforts to stop it.

Commercial/surveillance social media platforms deserve much harsher criticism and need our ongoing concerted efforts to demand more fundamental change toot.cafe/@arh1/10552800… PS: remember Mastodon? Check it out for an open/non-surveillance alternative joinmastodon.org

Twitter, Facebook, et al are just as much rats fleeing the ship as Chao and DeVos. There's no principled stand or substantive fix here, just a cynical response to market sentiment

When it’s white Nazis and thugs the state all of a sudden loses its power to intimidate and disrupt. We say it all the time, but lord if these were BLM protests and threats of violence, there would not be enough room in the jails.
