>Every well-designed study of political advertising I've ever seen has shown that it's impact is very small, in some cases unmeasurably small.
Skeptical about that.
I guess it depends on what you mean by "political advertising". Does that include targeted misinformation campaigns?
Surveillance capitalism does work, there's no question about that. What happens when a customer of these platforms "tweaks" them for the purpose politics instead of selling shoes (or whatever)? I don't think the answer is clear, yet, but I expect there's some very ugly stuff in there that's "not compatible with democracy"-- as Shoshana Zuboff has said.
