> But who is the author of this? The writing style is very early 2000s, which kind of narrows it down. Based on the content alone there is no obvious reason to publish this anonymously, so maybe someone caught up in #MeToo or similar? Based on the writing style though it sounds clearly like it's from someone associated either with Technorealism, the Cluetrain Manifesto, the Berkman Klein center folks, the Data & Society folks, or the handful of other prominent early bloggers who aren't closely associated with any of those. No one less than 30 or older than 70 writes like this though.
