Taking back control from social media – With insights from The Wall Street Journal
'It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when we lost control of what we see, read - and even think - to the biggest social-media companies', says Joanna Stern.
Social media is centre stage after the world once more witnessed its power to mobilise like-minded people. The alt-right's active social media networks facilitated the unprecedented invasion of the US Capitol. Just as social media networks also sparked regime change protests of Arab Spring. It comes at a cost, however. In this superb assessment, Joanna Stern, personal tech guru at our partners The Wall Street Journal, shares info about a Facebook alternative and offers practical suggestions on how we can take back control from the social media giants. Partly anyway. – Alec Hogg
