But also, more insidiously than that...
Look, our...
I'm going to get very grand now.
Our global order is based in the idea
of a reality-based politics.
And I...
I know that... formerly
of Radio Free Europe,
Mr Lack, who has since departed,
had gotten a lot of criticism
for comparing...
Russia Today
and Russian propaganda
to ISIS propaganda.
I think one of the ironies
of planetary scale computation
and the challenges that it brings to
the traditional sovereignties
of the modern nation state
is that, on the one hand,
global cloud platforms
take on the role and provide services
that have traditionally
been provided by...
the state.
But at the same time, it's not a story
of the state somehow
virtualising and going away.
At the same time, states
themselves
become cloud platforms.
And one of the ways
I think we see this operating
is the way in which what we used
to call traditional media,
television, for example,
shift in terms of their relationship
to their state sponsors.
