Quit using Twitter, create our own space?
You mean like Parlor? Let’s not forget that Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram and others benefited tremendously from taxpayers who built fiber hubs, laid out infrastructure and provided grants and tax incentives to get where they are
Then there are the counts of monopoly, anti-competition, RICO and collusion when these multiple liberal companies worked together to prevent a competitor from lawfully engaging in business.
Baby steps, look for a disruptive idea/method/technology to upend social media in the near future. They are mature platforms and ripe for it to happen. Look at the rise of the iPod. Before it Rio, Empeg, Zune; all either swept away or relegated to a tech backwater. However each dominated for a time until something better came along. They had a piece of the puzzle each but the iPod put them together. I'd see the same with parler, gab, mastodon, etc.
Then the iPhone wiped out the iPod, creative destruction. Innovative companies do that, they don't try to stifle competition.* They blow it out of the water. Does fakebook & twatter seem like cutting edge innovators now or just trying to hang onto their original idea? Am really curious how Musk's Starlink fits into the overall picture by bypassing current terrestrial infrastructure?
*Apple is no longer an innovator.
This. AND... this is exactly why AT&T was hit in Nashville. Hell, we had outages in Dallas because of that. JUST SAYIN.
Please don't put words in my mouth, and projecting. I never suggested whether I liked, or hated the FACT that US Taxpayers helped fund, and get the backbone of the internet up and running. Wikipedia has a technical breakdown that shows what Governmental agencies did, in establishing a baseline operational guideline for the internet - as it exists now, and going forward. We have the National Broadband Plan, and continuing taxpayer subsidies to ISP's.
I am neutral on this. Just reporting facts - however, you seem quite emotional about it.
Oh, regarding your rant on Twitter doesn't or didn't use public infrastructure - you may want to check out some articles by Mazdak Hashemi, who is only the VP of Infrastructure and Operations at Twitter - he would disagree with you
Guess I am talking with an 8th grader. Sorry you lack the intellectual horsepower to discuss something without a personal attack. I guess you scream like a Karen, somehow believing volume makes you correct
Packets, such as IP packet are a protocol, that everything uses from IPv4 and forward subscribe to. Whether it’s POTS, or DOCSIS, MILOS, or IPFC. Ask mommy what a modem is
The fact remains that the US Govt set up programs that benefitted early internet companies that no longer exist. Assistance was provided by tax incentives, and R&D being used as tax-free areas to encourage companies to grow
These are benefits that modern companies do not have. Add to the fact that large monopolistic companies such as Apple, Google, Facebook and Twitter are moving to crush and suppress competition- which is illegal. So any more personal attacks? Do you suppose the taxpayer helps support IEEE, who writes the specs that control everything?
