A post by Melanie D'Arrigo: Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets. They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch. They control the AI you're integrating into your lives, the algorithms feeding you content, and your personal data you've given up for access. This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us, and we’re not talking enough about it. Pay attention.

Decentralize it. We're getting there. The details are:
Servers and apps for reading, watching and listening that require no middleman. See #ghost #wordpress @wallabag #peertube #owncast #podcasting
The social news feed that lets important news and ideas go viral without algos or anybody being able to shut down access for large portions of the network. That's everything using #ActivityPub.
Direct automatic funding of journalism using an open protocol. #interledger #PublicPatron #FediForFiat
