Glenn Harlan Reynolds on Social Media Mobs and the Last Hope for Digital Free Speech – Encounter Books
Ben Weingarten: Let s start with a very fundamental question regarding this social media upheaval: Is Big Tech evil, or does power corrupt, and absolute power corrupt absolutely?
Glenn Reynolds: Yes! Actually, we should probably put in a clip now from that taco commercial where the girl says, Why not both? Big Tech is evil. Whether they re evil because they ve been corrupted by power, or whether they started out with the seed of evil within them to begin with, that s for somebody else to say. But the end state today is indistinguishable.
