> piled on by a mob

That’s the perception - but usually it’s at most a few hundred busybodies on Twitter, out of Google’s billions of users.

People just need to start ignoring these people. They are a tiny minority of people. (It just so happens that seemingly half of them are journalists at the nation’s biggest newspapers.)




I guess that's true but only until the NYT or whoever decides to join in as well.


NYT in the end though, is just one big blog, owned by a group with their own interests. Only when their interests line up with those of Google and Facebooks owners would they work in tandem.

The solution for those wanting unfettered culture in the Information Age, not beholden to big finance and big techs whims, remains free and distributed software, such as running your own blogs, peertube, etc
