Big tech – a threat to democracy and the economy? With Martin Andree
Meta, Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet, Amazon: our digital present is largely determined by a handful of huge tech companies. Media scholar Martin Andree is convinced that these digital monopolists are bringing ever larger parts of our lives under their control, increasingly dominating the formation of political opinion and at the same time abolishing our free market economy. In his "energetic pamphlet" (FAS) Big Tech muss weg! he shows with great insight and equally great fury how far the hostile takeover of our society by the tech giants has already progressed. Andree calls for a fundamental rethink: what are regulatory strategies might potentially prove effective? And what ways are there for users to reclaim the internet and fulfil the promise of a free, democratic network? Mod.: Christian Schiffer
