Middlemen... fah!
Google and Microsoft both are hard at work making users a "passive" element in online services... just a revenue source to be exploited.
The middlemen will tell us what to access, what to see, what to hear... all the while 'telling' us what to think about it... be telling us what 'everyone' thinks about it... and it's all 'entertainment' so lies are fair game.
And even when they are called out... they can hide behind "AI" and "algorithms" making it all "no one's fault."
