What next for big tech after landmark social media addiction verdict?

mark_l_watson

I am biased: fully support the main ideas from Center Human Technology, books like Privacy is Power and Surveillance Capitalism, etc. This verdict is a good thing for society. I am not anti-big tech, but big tech must accept responsibility for externalities created by profit first and screw over the public business models. For me, this is a confusing/complex set of issues: I want to see humanity thrive and tech can play a positive role in that, but with the current ‘almost fascist’ collusion of our current regime with most big tech leaders, I am worried that we won’t get the kind of protective laws we need. I appreciate this verdict!
