Big Tech and social media are facing backlash across the globe. It will be a murky period for big tech and the social media platforms. Many expect the Biden admin won’t find favoritism with the boys of big tech. It’s very clear that the social media media platforms has lost its way. Not only are the lawsuits piling up, but the platforms have been cluttered with stories, photos, videos, tweets and fleets. The platforms have lost their uniqueness and its become a race to adopt the newest feature. As far as getting your message out there, it’s getting trickier to navigate the clutter in the massive sea of litter.

As the European governments reign in big tech so will the Biden Admin. President Biden said in December that he backs revoking Section 230 which has been a legal shield for Facebook, Twitter and Google.

The idea that the social media services are platforms is dying quickly. In the new world, they’re publishers that create algorithms that lead users to specific content.
The social media giants are leading users to think that we are living in the days of 2007 with a proper open platform. That’s not the case today. The new platform is “programmed” and customized by outside users.
Breaking up these companies will dominate the conversation this year.
