June 8, 2020 admin Comments Off on EP #107 | Social Media & Corrupt Governments

The combination of the internet’s memory and the far reach of social media is new. Put into the hands of groups of citizens it may turn out to be incredibly powerful. This will be especially true when rooting out corruption, malfeasance, and racketeering in governments. So can it be done? I am not sure, but I think we’re going to find out in the very near future.
