I mean, maybe, yeah, in a perfect world that would be a thing. And should techies give up trying to invent it? Perhaps not. But I don’t think replacing editors with mobs is it. That’s the best idea we’ve come up with so far — with various tech variations. And it sucks.

This whole discussion feels like the ones around cryptocurrency. What problem does it solve? Ask that question and you’re instantly stuck countering a dozen libertarian tantrums. Nope. There’s no there there. It’s a tech solution in search of a problem. Just walk away.
