Whoever has the greatest number of followers gets to be the arbiter of truth.
- r00fus 7y agoCurrently that's FB/Twitter (aggregating populations using). When the arbiter of truth is a profit-oriented, authoritarian regime (ie, any corporation) that's not beholden to anyone - bad things happen. Just look at Apple's AppStore for an example (at least politics isn't influenced by Apps).
