    I would consider major centralized social networking platforms to be equivalent to television today as it holds captive the masses in much the same way, but with even finer grained control.

    I haven’t had cable/satellite TV in well over a decade, probably more. When I say I’m “watching TV,” rather than “watching videos” or “watching YouTube,” it means I’m watching something episodic, created by a major studio.
