Episode Synopsis "Episode 2: The Internet and the Third Estate"
This is a podcast broadcast: Article written by Ben Thompson on Stratechery.com dated Oct. 21st, 2019 Learn about the challenges that we face with free expression and a new framing for social networks. "The fact of the matter is that the world is fundamentally changing, just as it did five hundred years ago. At the same time, that change will take time — the printing press was invented in Germany in 1440 and yet German unification did not happen until 1871 — and will be guided by choices we make along the way. The sooner we recognize that transformation is coming, the more readily we can reject authoritarian attempts to hold onto the world as it was, and create the world we want to see." https://stratechery.com/2019/the-internet-and-the-third-estate/
