Mark Steyn: Google and Other Tech Companies Are Enforcing Ideological Straitjackets

‘I actually think we’re moving into a very dark era where YouTube and Facebook and Twitter will bounce more and more people off their monopolies’

EXCERPT:

STEYN: "The oil companies, or MGM when they both made movies and owned cinemas, they’re basically in the movie business. Standard Oil is in the oil business. Google is in the thought business. When you have some one who is actually in control of ideas who knows the data of just about all 7 billion people on the planet, and it is enforcing an ideological straitjacket, that is far more disturbing than if a Standard Oil or MGM are enforcing ideological straitjackets. So I -- I actually think we’re -- we're moving into a very dark era where YouTube and -- and Facebook and Twitter will bounce more and more people off their monopolies. And that will lead to more violence in the street."
