While acknowledging there's reporting/writing that gets details wrong and could be better, I find the current tech industry obsession with "they don't understand" to be a defensive denial. It's a deflective shield not an answer; it's like Trump yelling "fake news" at journalists.

We've been trying for more than a decade to get them to be more transparent and accessible. The reality has been foot-dragging and obscurity. It's not just my experience. They do cooperate, sometimes, with "elite" academics, but not strong critics.

I suggested public ad archives, especially for political ads, for Facebook in 2012 when everyone was applauding the Obama campaign for how great it was with tech/FB. Ignored and dismissed is the politest description of the response I got. This is reality: insiders react too late.

That's why it has to be regulatory imposition; insiders and startups will never do it on their own. Too expensive, didn't hear of it, didn't think of it. Exactly my point. Insiders cannot see and if they do, will not implement.

Here, me in 2012. I got enormous push back from both the Democrats and Silicon Valley, told I was paranoid, "malarkey", etc. Insiders and winners do not, and cannot, fix such things because they often cannot even see (until something like 2016 happens). https://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/17/opinion/beware-the-big-data-campaign.html …pic.twitter.com/mCKrAndosL
