A topic that was almost completely neglected in Marxist circles , was the privatization of online reputation systems. Most of the big tech corpo platforms just deploy some kind of algorithms or payed reputation badges. Technically this isn't a new phenomena the first privatized reputation system probably was something like banking credit-scores.

I think that maybe the toxic elements of social media like cancel-ism might have been the result of those privatized reputation systems.

I'm wondering why there don't seem to be any prominent non-commercial community p2p driven scoring systems ?
There seem to be very few people working on stuff like this, i only know of Ian Clarke the Creator of Freenet that is talking about this stuff.

That's a rating system, which is something else entirely.

Reddit upvotes go into your Karma score which is exactly the technocrats' social credit score mechanism of fascism.

Watch the Black Mirror leddit episode (s03e01) and you will see what is planned for us, and that doesn't even talk about government shills like e.g.

How young are you?
Reddit is run by alphabet soup (and so are both leftypols)
Alphabet soup is the result of government because centralization of power makes it really easy for psychopaths to take control and push their agenda.

Do you think it was capitalism that removed stories about the NSA from reddit?
Do you think reddit made money by allowing government shills to act like this?

If reddit gets paid to allow government shills to run their boards, did that money come from capitalism? Does government make money?
Okay, I know the CIA makes money… by having a monopoly on heroin trade and human trafficking, thanks to government…

Maybe you should consider listening to Larken Rose from time to time.

Why do you think reddit karma is reputation? It just tells you how many internet-points somebody got, it doesn't tell you what they got it for.

If i tell you Fred is good at math, and then 10 other people confirm that they too think highly about Fred's maths skills, then Freds gets a reputation for being good at maths.

The problem with reddit is that it is fully centralized so the reddit servers have ultimate control over your karma. Even if a million human beings saw and liked your post the server can give you zero karma because fuck you.

Distributed reputation systems like nostr are not necessarily a bad thing though since public key cryptography makes it impossible to forge and you can use a blacklist/whitelist to disregard the votes of bots and shills and people who don't matter.
