@ntnsndr I'm reading Governable Spaces right now, and I'm wondering... where/if at all you see implicit feudalism crossing the line into explicit feudalism.
On one side, there's platforms like Reddit that are using protocological control to suppress dissent (arstechnica.com/tech-policy/20…) and Discord that hides behind language of "servers" to mask a reality of control (something like 40,000 pre-emptive bans per year) who I don't think would call themselves feudal, but who take (explicit) action beyond the (implicit) design of their systems.
On the other, there's the examples you gave of people who call themselves "benevolent dictators" who actively wear the title even while acting more "justly" than the title may convey.
I have a lot of other thoughts on this that are backing up this question, but I'll just start with that to stick to the micro-blogging format for now lol.
In fear of more user protests, Reddit announces controversial policy change
Moderators now need Reddit’s permission to turn subreddits private, NSFW.Scharon Harding (Ars Technica)
For sure. Chapter 2 of the book argues that, with people like Elon Musk and Curtis Yarvin, implicit feudalism is becoming increasingly explicit as a corporate and political philosophy.
The "founder mode" idea also correlates with this.

AND, those games are probably now all gonna be chained to that idiotic PSN requirement, meaning that contrary to one of the statements cited in the article, which talks about being able to "deliver their IP to more users around the world". PSN lock-in does the exact opposite through geo-restrictions etc.
The most profitable patient is one with a chronic (highly functioning) illness, not a cured one.
When I lived in the US I was always amazed by the amount of ads for painkillers and other fixes. I came to the understanding that healthcare for many was not about curing people, but about making people able to work. I've never seen so many people with chronic illnesses poorly addressed as in the US.

How to Build Governable Spaces for Online Communities
By Kike Arnaiz, via Stocksy United I’ve seen it again and again: A group gets started, gets working on something good an important, and then falls apart becauseMedia Economies Design Lab
Nathan, how would you describe online community building to a group of people who consider themselves a community, but not primarily an online one, but using platforms and social media "as is" in a "ubiquituous/ambient computing" situation? For whom ICT are just a tool to communicate internally and externally, which leave technicial decisions to "the techies"?
Thinking about how to untangle the knot at the @IDN.
I was rather asking about how to raise awareness about this inherent online-ness, when everybody is already fed up and tired out from getting lost in platforms and logins.
An emphasis on synchronous collab is making things even harder.

Humans may not have survived without Neanderthals
"Perhaps getting Neanderthal DNA was part of the success because it gave us better adaptive capabilities outside of Africa," said Prof Stringer. "We had evolved in Africa, whereas the Neanderthals had evolved outside of Africa."
"By interbreeding with the Neanderthals we got a quick fix to our immune systems."
We could also say that by interbreeding with Homo sapiens we were all better able to survive the environmental challenges of the time. Try saying that by the Europeans interbreeding with people of Asian or African descent we helped them survive. Surely they are ALL our grandparents and great grandparents! This reeks of racism.
