This is as true as sad. This kind of centralization of power will end the world we know. Information asymmetry enforces itself automacically. What a bunch of sheep we are. Including the high paid henchmen of power reading this.
- majewsky 4y ago> Information asymmetry enforces itself automacically. If that were a universal rule, the Renaissance and the Enlightenment could never have happened the way they did.
- jeffreygoesto 4y agoTrue. But it is more often so than not. For example women were actively kept from being equal, to quite some extent by not educating them equally. Also the ages of feudalism were quite long until something finally changed.
- jrumbut 4y agoI think this problem doesn't really lie along the axis of centralization of power. Google is taking on policing power because the actual police are more or less absent on its platform (because of technical competency and complex jurisdictional issues). Is that an example centralization or decentralization? It's a little of both. The real problem, IMO, is best described as "public power in private hands."
