How do you propose to keep it apolitical? Even Wikipedia has a political slant.
I agree with your concerns, but I don't know if what you propose can keep politics out. It is still probably worth a shot either way.
- PierredeFermat 7y agoNot entirely sure yet. However, that's exactly why verified, anonymous data reporting would be a good starting point. But I assume your concerns are more about [the difficulty of] neutral funding?
- aww_dang 7y agoExactly, state sponsored universities could create some of the same conflicts of interest we've seen with COVID-19.
- PierredeFermat 7y agoTrue. How do you think this could be overcome? Crowdfunding? Donations?
- aww_dang 7y agoAllow competing voices to coexist without presuming to act as an arbiter of 'truth'. Politics would remain, but the end user could choose.
- dragonwriter 7y ago> However, that's exactly why verified, anonymous data reporting would be a good starting point Verification is probably the first place that the apolitical goal falls apart.
