I agree that in order to make it to our Star Trek like future paradise, we will eventually have to nationalize companies that get too big. I don’t think we’re anywhere near that point in time though.

The answer to this question depends on if you think the people can more easily hold tech executives or government accountable. In normal, well-functioning democracy, the answer is easy. Right now, in the US, I'm afraid it's not so straightforward.

What if we nationalize Facebook, then get an illiberal, unaccountable government in 2024, whether honestly or not? Then every progressive user's Facebook gets literally combed by a team of trolls likely /organized by/ C*rnov*ch and P*s*biec, then handed over to a captive FBI.

Contrarian take: if you take them over, you end-up with politics ultimately doing nothing for fear of angering the right. If you just mandate a fairness clause, then the situation is more muddy.

Why the US government alone though? If the logic is applied properly, Facebook should be a department of the UN, no?
