Stewardship of global collective behavior

[TSwizzle]

Social media among people can be noisy, but that is life. It is when people with fake personas or BOTs take over and attempt to manipulate behavior or opinion that there is trouble that shouldn't be simply condoned as 'free speech'.

I don't disagree that fake personas and BOTs should be curtailed but I don't think that's what the article in the OP was aiming at. That article seems like a rant about how the plebs don't vote or behave the way they should because of memes or something.

Get rid of the manipulation and that helps a lot.

What manipulation are you talking about ? Just about everything is an attempt to manipulate, whether it be buying a brand of beer, supporting a team or voting for a politician. Is this the "Russian Collusion", "Hillary eats babies on pizza" bullshit that was doing the rounds ?
