The Shift from Open Internet to Walled Gardens
The internet is transitioning from an open space to a series of walled gardens due to changes in data policies by tech giants such as Google. These policies allow companies to scrape and use user-generated content for training AI models. This shift raises concerns about privacy and control, as public posts are no longer just about visibility, but also about how the data can be utilized. The implications extend beyond the services users use, and it is becoming apparent that the social web is now primarily focused on entertainment and revenue generation through ads.
