People deserve a better deal in trading some of their data for connectedness online, former White House official @superwuster tells EFF’s Cindy Cohn and @jgkelley on the new episode of “How to Fix the Internet.” https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/04/podcast-episode-antitrustpro-internet
Podcast Episode: Antitrust/Pro-Internet
Imagine an internet in which economic power is more broadly distributed, so that more people can build and maintain small businesses online to make good livings.Electronic Frontier Foundation

in reply to Electronic Frontier Foundation • • •It stands to reason that if you want to get a hold of a lot of data, which technically has value, your job would be the devalue said data as much as possible.
This is what happened to the #internet citc 2000, when #ads covered every single page like a plague of locusts. Your eyeball time was devalued.
Then, #Facebook basically devalued your personal information by making it normal to give all of it away.
Now Facebook wants $10 to remove ads, but not #tracking.
