Points of Interest: Remapping With Short-Term Rentals | WIRED Brand Lab

Produced by WIRED Brand Lab with Expedia Group | Over the past 10 years, how we travel has been completely transformed by social media, technology, and the gig economy. With the proliferation of short-term rentals, we’ve seen a shift in the way housing in communities operates. Your neighbor could change every weekend, and your little corner bodega is now a travel hot spot. Short-term rentals open up local tourism in a new way. But with new regulations severely limiting short-term rentals in one of the largest cities in the world, what does the future of the industry look like?

To fix social media, we need to introduce digital socialism

Breaking up Big Social Media sounds great, but how would this look in practice? A number of legal scholars and politicians have proposed reforming social networks by using antitrust law and regulations to create a more competitive marketplace. Leaving this task to market forces, however, is a bad idea that will not solve the central problem: proprietary control of the networks and the exploitation of user attention for profit.

A solution based on digital socialism is needed to transform social media into a global democratic commons. This would eradicate Big Social Media by placing ownership and control directly into the hands of the people.

Various scholars have put forward two main ideas to break up Big Social Media, neither of which can sufficiently accomplish their goals.

The first one seeks to dismantle past mergers and acquisitions. Facebook, for example, bought up Instagram and WhatsApp years ago, and is now seeking to integrate all three platforms into a seamless communications network.

The second idea proposes a solution to this problem: make social networks interoperate. Social media platforms would be forced to allow members of one network to interact with members of another. For example, a Facebook user would be able to post a comment under a YouTube video while logged into Facebook, and vice-versa. Users data would also be portable so they could move their profile to a different platform.
