Redux from 18th August 2017 – The Evil Empire of the Internet must be broken up.
There are a number of articles over the years I’ve written on the censorship tendencies I thought big tech would take. Excess is the invariable trait of any monopoly. At the time, I suspect they were greeted with mild skepticism, but as we’ve found in the recent presidential election, they weren’t too far off the mark. If anything, they’ve proved to be too conservative.
As they drill down to a more specialist depth than the articles I’m currently producing on particular big tech companies, I think it useful for them to get another airing. I’ve prefixed them with the word redux and their original publication date, but not a single word has been changed.
The first is on Google. Some of the simple examples of it returning deliberately skewed results may not work the same. Probably worse. Anyway, click on The Evil Empire of the Internet must be broken up and you’ll find out for yourself.
