Platform neutrality and the global balance of powers

Abstract:
This paper defines platform neutrality as a concept for large technology companies, most notably, social media platform providers. It is deduced from the concept of state neutrality, and acknowledges societal and political functions as well as state-like structures these companies have put into place. The paper argues that recent developments demonstrate a convergence of social media towards platform neutrality. It explains the benefit of platform neutrality both for businesses as well as societies.
