We're in the first round of digital media becoming a pervasive part of everyone's lives. People are just now realizing how harmful these services are & just how extensive their powers are. At the same time, there are a bunch of new services popping up that offer to spread power more equally with structures that are more distributed by design. I think it will take time (like, maybe a decade or two)...but today's dominant services will die out through a combination of terrible events and user-hostile moves, and new services will emerge that build on the lessons learned. It might seem unthinkable right now, but I think the right dynamics are in place to make it happen in the near-future.
