The tech-driven desire to eliminate friction, which is the one force stopping things from being torn apart, is also to blame. We’ve tried to address it practically in another @[email protected] paper - #OurBBC - through governance reforms: demos.co.uk/research/our...

In light of the evidence emerging daily, if anything, we are too polite in #OurBBC about just how serious the threats are to epistemic security, cognitive resilience and human autonomy… demos.co.uk/wp-content/u...
