[03:12] Techrights-sec I wish he would post short links to his writings in his blog or on the fediverse [03:12] Techrights-sec because I would go out of my way to read them but can't normally find them [03:12] Techrights-sec techdirt and PIA [03:14] schestowitz-TR PIA's blog has not been active since the Lee empire ran into trouble [03:15] schestowitz-TR wow, it has now been two months since I quit all that crap [03:15] schestowitz-TR I was a "heavy smoker" [03:15] schestowitz-TR maybe I should record in a moment, after coffee (I bre it by the litre since the kettle died) [03:15] schestowitz-TR *brew [03:15] schestowitz-TR OTA ● May 01 [04:11] schestowitz-TR draft [04:11] schestowitz-TR i want to ask, is this a subject we should routinely explode in the future? [04:11] schestowitz-TR it does fit under our scope [04:11] Techrights-sec which topic? [04:11] schestowitz-TR but not sure about relative priority compared to swpats etc [04:12] schestowitz-TR centralised & social media [04:12] schestowitz-TR being a bad model for the Web/Net [04:12] schestowitz-TR EFF never speaks about that, ever [04:12] schestowitz-TR If EFF thjinks it can secure its future with a Musk-controlled Twitter account [04:12] schestowitz-TR then it put itself in the chalk around the dead person's body [04:15] Techrights-sec I think it is a very relevant topic because of the centralization and [04:15] Techrights-sec of the demonstrated misuses it has seen and is seeing in regards to misleading [04:15] Techrights-sec the public on all parts of the political spectrum [04:15] Techrights-sec And because the EFF has not just dropped the ball here but fallen flat on [04:15] Techrights-sec its face -- while running towards the opposite goal. [04:17] schestowitz-TR OK, thanks.

Correct [04:37] Techrights-sec they have nothing to do with facillitating access to knowledge and the whole [04:37] Techrights-sec framwork or system is set up to prevent long term preservation of material. [04:37] schestowitz-TR today's search "engines" are 100% abour ECONOMICS [04:37] schestowitz-TR they have nothing to do with facilitating access to knowledge [04:37] schestowitz-TR look who controls them: shareholders [04:37] schestowitz-TR and for companies that have a stake in the outcome of what's shown up [04:37] schestowitz-TR and what you click first [04:37] schestowitz-TR so I try to avoid SEs any time I can [04:37] schestowitz-TR wikipedia is a starting point less biased than Gulag shareholders [04:37] schestowitz-TR many of the other "search" "engines" are just meta engines feeding off those [04:37] schestowitz-TR who can afford to crawl and then process vast amounts of words [04:45] Techrights-sec Only somewhat less biased. Most anything of political or economic value [04:45] Techrights-sec has been sliced and diced to steer people away from specific ideas, resources, [04:45] Techrights-sec sources, and concepts. M$ atack on open standards, and specifically the open [04:45] Techrights-sec document format, are two ofthe worst examples but most topics are manipulated [04:45] Techrights-sec like that and some even manipulated in a more severe manner. [04:46] Techrights-sec Just look at just about any edit war. [04:46] Techrights-sec Wikipedia is almost ok at being a starting point, but sources and external links [04:46] Techrights-sec are curated by hostile interests in such a way as to create huge blind spots [04:46] Techrights-sec in coverage.
