Wikilobbying

with 4 comments

Steven Colbert’s Wikilobbying is obviously humoristic, But it reflect serious concerns about lobbies and PR agencies tempering with the information in Wikipedia. I like using Wikipedia and I believe it has a potential, but it has to develop some serious defense to protect itself from such activities.

  3. I didn’t know about these laws, but many people predicted the PR Attack on Wikipedia. Which make me wonder what step the project took to protect itself. It is obvious that lack of response to these actions will empty Wikipedia from its value and will destroy it.
