| I'm gonna set up a letter of protest. | |
| I don't think I'll call it a petition. | |
| Probably a letter of protest. | |
| Um and uh I'm gonna try to circulate this around to a lot of prominent people who have been um wronged in various ways by Wikipedia. | |
| Um I think that will help. | |
| But at this point it it seems to be increasingly necessary, making some noise at Congress, which isn't now got the oversight committee is is uh investigating um foreign influence on Wikipedia, and this bears on the more general problems of Wikipedia being, as I say, a an engine of defamation. | |
| I am not trying to get Wikipedia to be um generally regulated. | |
| But that would just be a disaster, of course not. | |
| That's not what I'm trying to do. | |
| I simply want it to be possible to sue somebody if there has not been any satisfaction from the Wikipedia fold. | |
| Right? | |
| Um where there is a tort, um there must be a uh defendant. | |
| That's that's my idea. | |
| So I think and and uh for that matter, um uh uh speaking to directly to the Wikimedia Foundation, making your feelings known, especially if you're a prominent person. | |
| You know, if you're a congressman or senator. | |
| Um obviously your voice counts for more. | |
| You will be listened to more by the adults in the room at the Wikimedia Foundation. | |
| I'm sure there are a lot of people who have been bad mouthed by Wikipedia um who would sign such a letter. | |
| We can send it to the Wikimedia Foundation and to Congress and the White House and other governments around the world, perhaps. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Um I'm not saying that I want to to um you know use the power of government to impose anything on Wikipedia. | |
| I I don't want to do that at all. | |
| Um I uh still have many libertarian bones in my body. | |
| That actually makes me uncomfortable. | |
| Um but uh some of the worst problems with Wikipedia today that would cause, you know, somebody like you to sign such a letter of protest um are actually creations of the law, |
