So now look at any other kind of decision, which isn't an emergency requiring immediate access to detailed information and a quick means of communicating a message back. In other words, nearly all the decisions that the legislative branch of government makes. How exactly is Big Data supposed to be helping us here? Where is the obvious trail of connected dots that leads from there to direct democracy being a possible solution, supposedly for the first time now? What special magic of crowdsourcing applies itself to legislative deliberation and decision-making? The question is just fundamentally screwed up and does not account for its own assumptions.Statistics: Posted by Phoebe — Thu Sep 28, 2017 9:48 am
