Empowerment Disrupts Gatekeeping
Empowering individuals to express themselves disrupts traditional power structures across politics, religion, and media. This shift leads to tension between emerging platforms, like Silicon Valley, and traditional publishers who have historically controlled information. The paternalistic model of traditional media faces challenges as individuals curate their own narratives, undermining established gatekeepers and allowing for a more democratized flow of information. However, this democratization can also invite negative influences, reflecting the dual-edged nature of communication technologies.
