It seems that everything was running just fine according to plan until Trump was elected and now there's a huge crusade to use all the technological might of Google, Facebook, etc to shut down whatever caused that to happen and save democracy. I hear a lot of technological luminaries in AI and technology saying the next most important thing that has to be done is to end "fake news". That big tech is hiring in AI to detect "hate". It's a Manhattan project to save the status quo! Forget slaughterbots, or rogue AI, the real disruptive technology that is going to end the world and requires coordinated action by all the major players is Alex Jones with a social media account! The media has been highly controlled since the broadcast era with a small oligopoly of federally licensed broadcasters allowed to conduct mass influence operations. Since the 1996 telecommunications act things have gotten more and more centralized till we have 5 companies that control 90% of media, so of course people are looking for other options. Congrats to Twitter for being the least technologically adept company and thus being kind of garbage at censorship thus leading to them being the vanguard of free speech.
