>Now there is a ray of hope. It's coming in the form of decentralised networks Do you have anything against governments developing and funding decentralized networks, as a push back against an oligopoly of messaging and distribution silos? To copy and paste my comment from elsewhere in this thread: I might be in the minority to think this is a great idea, if it were basically "pump government money into developing and hosting instances of the Fediverse (GNU Social, Mastodon, Friendica, Hubzilla, or Pleroma) AND building those data centers in collaboration with the Open Compute Project (Facebook is publishing the blueprint on how to build a facebook datacenter, take advantage of it.)
