So far, very good. She has an appreciation for emergent phenomenon.
I am not sold on her critique of Facebook.
I think of Facebook as a newsstand in New York City, back in the day. The newsstand does not produce any of the content being sold. It is merely an outlet.
The newsstand could choose to sell some publications and not others. And that decision could be based on personal ethics, or commitment to high quality reliable news. Or it could be based on profits. The owner of the newsstand gets to decide.
The newsstand is not responsible for the content in the publications it sells, nor is it responsible for what its customers buy, nor for what the customers do with what they buy.
Ressa encourages us to follow Daniel Kannehman's advice to think slow rather than fast, but I think we need to think even a bit slower that she demonstrates. Though Facebook has tried to curate a better offering of posts, many "bad" posts still get through. But people are abandoning Facebook in part for this reason. They don't believe what they read there. That is competition at work.
I understand that for Ressa the dangers were more imminent, and I applaud her virtue in standing up to dictators. But I remain optimistic that the market for ideas is the best way to discover truth.
