  • All this talk of state-sponsored/subsidized news/media gives me the wiggins, at least as someone who lives in the US. I’m sure people smarter than myself could come up with a bullet proof system to prevent abuse, but really, I would have little faith it would stand the test of time. I feel like any protections you put in place would be eroded eventually. All it takes is one “emergency” or “disaster”. Maybe I’m wrong. It just feels so 1984ish.







  • I will never understand these platforms doing this. The whole reason they became popular was because you could see what everyone was saying on them. It drove traffic to them and in turn ad revenue and more users. Reddit closing their api is basically the same. Only Facebook gets away with that kind of crap because of the nature of what it is and how it’s used.

    Not that I’m complaining.
