That was an awesome article, I really wish I read it sooner. So many of today’s problems are predicted within. My favorite parts:
1. Designing Social software is as different from UX design as UX is from bare functionality.
2. Tech groups are not immune from using “vilification of external enemies” to increase group cohesion, where enemies included Microsoft in the 90s, it’s probably surveillance capitalism today.
3. Unrestrained social software can lead to constitutional crisis: the tension between individuals and group, the rights and responsibilities of each, what’s the social contract for an online community? That’s more political science than computer science.
