You’ve probably experienced it yourself. Maybe it’s the way you feel while scrolling through your Twitter feed—anxious, twitchy, a little world weary—or maybe it was this month’s Facebook privacy scandal, which reminded you that you’ve entrusted the most intimate parts of your digital life to a profit maximizing surveillance machine.
Our growing discomfort with our largest social platforms is reflected in polls. One recently conducted by Axios and Survey Monkey found that all three of the major social media companies—Facebook, Twitter and Google—are significantly less popular with Americans than they were five months ago. But it would be a mistake to throw up our hands and assume that it has to be this way. The original dream of social media—producing healthy discussions, unlocking new forms of creativity, connecting people to others with similar interests— shouldn’t be discarded because of the failures of the current market leaders.
The primary problem with today’s social networks is that they’re already too big, and are trapped inside a market-based system that forces them to keep growing. In their book Neva Power, which comes out next week, Jeremy Heimans and Henry Timms write about the struggle between centralized, top down institutions, which represent "old power," and decentralized, bottom-up movements, which represent "new power. "
Facebook, they write, is an example of a new power institution that serves old power interests. It harvests the creative output of billions of people and turns it into a giant, centralized enterprise, with most users sharing none of the economic value they create and getting no say in the platform’s governance. Instead, the authors ask, what if a social network was truly run by its users? "If you’re contributing economic value to something of this much social consequence, you should share in the value you’re creating," Heimans told me.
Nathan Schneider, a professor of media studies at the University of Colorado, had a similar idea in 2016, when he proposed that Twitter users band together to buy the platform from its shareholders and convert it into a user-run collective. People who made valuable contributions to the network, such as employees and power users, would receive bigger stakes and more voting power. And users would have a seat at the table for major decisions about the platform’s operations.
In a blog post last year, venture capitalist Hunter Walk proposed an interesting idea: a legally mandated "start over" button that, when pressed, would allow users of social networks to delete all their data, clear out their feeds and friend lists, and begin with a fresh account. Such approaches would undoubtedly be bad for most social networks’ business models. But it could create new and healthy norms around privacy and data hygiene.
According to Hunter Walk, "start over" button may________.
选项
A、spoil the business framework of social media
B、disturb the online environment
C、give entire dala security to users
D、recreate a new account
答案
A
解析
本题是细节题。根据题干关键词Hunter Walk定位至末段。文中对“start over”的描述为“用户应该拥有一个受法律保护的‘重启’按键,一旦按下,就能够清空用户所有数据,删除所有推送内容和好友清单,并以一个全新的账户开始。这种方法无疑会对大多数社交网络的商业模式产生不利影响。但它可以创建有关隐私和数据卫生的新的健康规范”。通过分析对照可以得出A项为正确答案。B项“干扰网络环境”,与原文表述相反,故排除;C项中的entire“完全的”,表达过于绝对化,故排除;D项在原文中的对应表述为begin with a fresh account,以一个全新的账户开始,而并非重建一个账户,故排除。
