    Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Social Media is a tool. Who uses the tool, how it is used, the reasons behind, everything counts. I totally agree with Lanier, unfortunately, that is a tool for manipulation for many. However, we need Social Media as the forum where we can discuss also many things which can't be discussed anywhere else. With the advent of Blockchain, tokenisation, and the 4th IR this issue should be discussed and solutions found before the smart people just leaves social media for the masses. We need to work on it now, better than later. What do you think?
