There’s an old joke: in heaven the police are British, the mechanics German, the cooks French, the lovers Italian, and the Swiss organise it. In hell the police are German, the mechanics French, the cooks British, the lovers Swiss, and the Italians organise it. An internet version might be: in theory, topic experts would supply our information, social networks would connect us for common humanity, and Google would organise it for authority. In practice, we get our information from the most attention-driven sites, social networks bundle us for marketing, and Google organises it for ad sales.
