Big Tech is at the forefront of the nation's epistemological poisoning, writes Ben Voth.
Epistemology is the manner by which individuals and/or society know that something is true. In the most mundane form for the everyday person,"googling it" is the manner for this discovery. The overwhelming power of the internet to answer questions brings with it the now ominous reality of the technology companies that are gatekeepers of that vast reservoir.
Congressional authority as established in federal authorities such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other similar regulatory agencies extending from congressional authority cannot act to restrain or limit free speech. It appears increasingly probable that organizations such as the FBI and other federal agencies did advise to companies such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter in order to limit people's freedom of speech.
Because the U.S. federal government is the largest employer in the U.S., the actions of federal agencies within these domains of Google, Facebook, and Twitter easily constitute a powerful shadow and threat to free expression.
Professor Denton and I argue that the well-being of the U.S. is intimately attached to its central praxis of free speech. The consideration of multiple points of view enables discoveries in science, medicine, and politics that contribute to human well-being. The rather shocking stoppage of life expectancies increasing around 2015 points to a correlation with technologies more efficient at constraining rather than expanding human creativity.
