So much of this thoughtful piece on the metaverse is on point, but particularly how the words we use to talk about web3 (but really, all new tech these days) belies the financial interests behind it all: https://t.co/VA55idiGb9 — PolitiTweet.org

@BenjySarlin That video could have been a 10-second demo. User voice command: "Milk." Retailer displays all available brands/sizes of milk. User taps on the desired item. Done. That's not even, like, an innovative way to do it! Just what I came up with based on *what's possible now.* — PolitiTweet.org

One thing I'd caution against is giving too much credit to the idea the metaverse may upend "our existing social hierarchies and institutions." From what I've seen, new technologies tend to replicate existing systems. Power accrues to the richest, loudest, most famous, etc. — PolitiTweet.org
