Will you trust them this time? "Among its recommendations are stricter algorithmic control, refusal to advertise next to flagged content, and large-scale fact-checking programs. Training and capacity-building are suggested not to foster critical thinking but to reinforce a shared understanding of what constitutes unacceptable speech." via @Reclaim The Net

Billions to earn it. One bad decision to erode it. "So if Apple’s message to users is that they should trust Apple Wallet, and move more of their 'shit that goes in your wallet' life from their traditional analog wallet into their digital Apple Wallet, that’s the bar. No ads, ever. They’re competing against the privacy and intimacy of one of the most personal things people carry with them."

Writing about the promise of cyberspace and the cyberpunk culture that emerged around it in the 80s and 90s, he's best known for Mondo 2000 magazine, where he covered everything from VR to smart drugs. Or as Wikipedia puts it, "a more anarchic and subversive prototype for the later-founded Wired magazine."
