 m director&nbsp\;Robby Mook\, and&nbsp\;Politico&nbsp\;chief technology co
 rrespondent&nbsp\;Mark Scott\, discussing the structure of the modern digi

 bsp\;Terms of Disservice&nbsp\;(Brookings Institution Press)&nbsp\;attempt
 s to chart out a path forward for a new digital social contract to establi
 sh better economic equity.Key findings in&nbsp\;Terms of Disservice&nbsp\;
 include:“The exploitative rake of data and attention on the path to natu
 ral monopoly”: The dominant internet firms deal in a novel currency with
  consumers based on data and attention — and through it have become natu
 ral monopolies.“The radical commercialization of decision making”: Per
 sonal data is collected at a mind-blowing rate and level of granularity. I
 nternet firms engage in radical\, “commercialized bias” — and have m
 arketized the segmentation and splicing of society.“The dilemma of atten
 ding to content policy reform”: Our immediate attention to matters of co
 ntent policy reform is misplaced\; the more important target in the realm 
 of Big Tech reform is fundamental economic regulation of the industry.
