puisque nos vies sont toutes conditionnées par les structures numériques: nous cherchons par Google, nous communiquons par Facebook Messenger/WhatsApp, nous (nous) mettons en scène par Instagram, lesquelles sont toutes des plateformes qui reposent sur l'excellence de l'influence (régime publicitaire).

les revenus découlent de la «santé» des médias publicitaires: plus ceux-ci fonctionnent bien (ils nous ciblent avec précision, donc nous influencent davantage: nous les voyons plus fréquemment, nous nous arrêtons sur elles plus longtemps, nous cliquons plus souvent), plus les revenus augmentent.

le marché des «influenceurs» semble d'ailleurs en important essor depuis les dernières années (données nécessaires), mais va dans la même direction que le propos de Wormser.

If the majority rules search engine results, the majority could also rule over the content. if the majority of the online population are sexist, then the majority of the results when searching even a simple/general term such as "cars" could be more searched by men, but also have more content created by men, especially men who are "middle class" or higher who could afford to purchase a car and own a technology capable of using a search engine.

It makes me think... What searches would come from people who were struggling financially and did not usually have access to a computer? What would they search first? And how would that impact the popular searches and content?

The majority of Canada's populace are not low income, but what would happen to results in other countries (or even ours)where low income is the majority, and they were all given access to search technologies?

How can this be institutionalized?

If Facebook were to continue to evolve at it's current rate and with it's potential power as well as political influence, I could see it attempting to work the way China does in a new political regime.

Knowing a little of what is coming in advance here, I can't help but thinking: How can this riot theory potentially be used to influence politics and/or political campaigns? It could be particularly effective to get people "riled up" just before a particular election to create a political riot of sorts and thereby influence the outcome.

Facebook has done several social experiments with elections in showing that their friends and family voted and thereby affecting other potential voters. When done in a way that targets people of particular political beliefs to increase turn out, one is given a means of drastically influencing elections. In some sense, this is an example of this "Riot Theory".

Interestingly the technology here isn't that different than the Facebook Data that Cambridge Analytica was using, the difference is that they're not using it to directly impact politics, but to drive sales. Does this mean they're more "ethical"?

I believe that DH work could be instrumental in accomplishing this vision. Since the literature of this time is in the public domain, it is indeed possible to run tests of influence and similarity on all existing manuscripts.

After learning about the concept of measuring literary influence with DH tools, it is difficult for me to read any scholarship on influence without automatically thinking what the "data" would say.

SNA also gives you the ability to see beyond your social horizon. It is easy to know our friends friends but it is very hard to know our friends friends friends. Much less our friends friends friends friends. But do they influence us in some way? How many steps out does influence remain? Is there a way to measure this in your small paper?

Sociologically, this law of networks is how inequality is built in and reproduced, i.e. it takes money to make money. People gravitate to those who already have connections, power or influence which gives those people more power, connections and influence.

Yes, how much influence did Exxon Mobil Corporation exert on the choice of programming viewed on Masterpiece Theatre?

The charge that the British Crown had induced Native Americans to attack colonists was later repeated in the Declaration of Independence.

So even in a hands free scenario, the market and society are still being structured by the government..? Does that really leave it to be hands free? The way the government decides to structure it surely must have an influence on how the turnout is

Intellectual property may be a liberal influence on society.

Language is formed on complex interactions and has many histories, especially English. It cannot be classified as our language and other language because these so often overlap
