I just asked Meta’s Galactica.org to write about the “political economy of Facebook.” It returned, “Sorry, your query didn’t pass our content filters.”
 
Upon checking further, I can’t get #Galactica to write anything about Facebook or Mark Zuckerberg.
Not that I was expecting a blistering critical analysis, but it feels pretty weak that Galactica will write about other platforms and tech CEOs, but seems to filter any attempt to write about Facebook or its CEO.
My article, “Depending on Other in the #IndieWeb: Navigating Holistic and Prescriptive Building in a Decentralized Social Network” was just published: https://hcommons.org/deposits/item/hc:46071/
It’s part of a collection of essays, titled “What Would Ursula Franklin Say?”  Ursula Franklin is a huge influence on my research, so I’m honored to be part of this great collection. Read all 17 articles at https://reprisingtherealworld.hcommons.org/what-would-ursula-franklin-say-collection/
