Well, anything can transform itself trough time. A politician that looks good at election time can turn out to be quite a bad guy. Is it possible to trust any policy maker ? For that matter, why are the major communications mediums used by people on the Whole Planet the ownership of private companies ? Wouldn't that be quite an important issue ? Aside from any policy making process and regulation, a private company is entitled to do any action. I do not like that guy, what's his name, Alex Jones, but he got banned within a day from all major communication mediums by a common accord between companies. Why is it that the president of India uses twitter to share with the common people ? Why are many people staring down at their smartphones running private companies' communication between elements of the masses ? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
