Most Americans Say Social Media has Too Much Power & Influence

Via Pew Research Center:

A majority of Americans think social media companies have too much power and influence in politics, and roughly half think major technology companies should be regulated more than they are now, according to a new Pew Research Center survey that comes as four major tech executives prepare to testify before Congress about their firms’ role in the economy and society.

Overall, 72% of U.S. adults say social media companies have too much power and influence in politics today, according to the June 16-22 survey. Far fewer Americans believe the amount of political power these companies hold is about the right amount (21%) or not enough (6%).

 

Majorities of both Republicans and Democrats believe social media companies wield too much power, but Republicans are particularly likely to express this view. Roughly eight-in-ten Republicans and Republican-leaning independents (82%) think these companies have too much power and influence in politics, compared with 63% of Democrats and Democratic leaners. Democrats, on the other hand, are more likely than Republicans to say these companies have about the right amount of power and influence in politics (28% vs. 13%). Small shares in both parties believe these companies do not have enough power.

Now considering that the recent hack on Twitter reveled that Jack Dorsey was lying about the ability to put conservatives on “blacklists” & with the overall ideology of those in Silicon Valley abundantly clear, it is shocking that is as high as it is among Democrats. However, with Big Tech all in on the CoronaHoax™ & Black Lives (Don’t) Matter using social media in aiding the progressive left’s relentless assault on Don John, most are seeing the imbalance of power more clearly.
