Since we last spoke, the co-founder of Wikipedia, Larry Sanger, has given an interview to Tucker Carlson that's getting a lot of attention here in the United States on the right.
And he has had a lot to say about Wikipedia and not a lot of it's good.
In the past, he's called it one of the most effective organs of establishment propaganda in history.
And we should say that he believes Wikipedia has a liberal bias.
And in this interview and on his X feed, he's advocating for what he's calling reforms to the site, which include reveal who Wikipedia's leaders are and abolish source blacklists.
And I just wonder what you make of it.
I think you and Larry did build something beautiful that has endured.
I do wonder if it's going to be part of our future because I feel some despair about where we're all headed and some fear.
And I guess you'll just say that I have to trust that it's all going to end up okay.
But I do...
worry that it might not.
That didn't cheer me up.
I got to tell you right there.
Fair enough.
I got to tell you, like as a pep talk.
OK.
What was the last page you read on Wikipedia and what were you trying to find out?
You are a geek in the best possible way.
Thank you so much for your time.
I really appreciate it.
