  1. Political ads on TV must disclose who paid for the ad. It only makes sense that internet based platforms be held to the same standard.

    Regarding automation. This is progress and I am certain it will create more opportunities than it eliminates in the long tun. The camera replaced painters, the Xerox replaced copywriters, coffee machines replaced baristas, and cars no doubt put a lot of horses and blacksmiths out of work. But we also gained photographers, mechanics…etc. We can’t permanently hold back progress, we can only delay it.

  2. Learning comes in different forms.

    I use racing sims to hone my driving skills and to improve my reactions to traffic.

  3. Who would have thought that the generation that would forward emails so that their crush would like them could be influenced by obviously fake information online? No way Zuckerberg could have seen that coming. /s
