Do you find that the people responsible for making the Internet "a corrupting influence on civil society" — the people who run Facebook and Twitter and so on — are influenced by Republican Party ideologies and concerns?

The issue with our currently large companies seems to have become that the goals of shareholders are not necessarily aligned with the goals of society.

And there needs to be a long conversation about that.
