“A tiny group of firms control almost all public spaces on the Internet where people meet, talk, trade and connect. The risk of this concentration of influence is the potential for abuse by maligned state actors, organised crime and terrorist networks. Facebook in particular is now subject to sustained criticism for its unwillingness to properly police the public they control.
