[caption id=“attachment_4485833” align=“alignright” width=“380”]DailyDope with Nikita Rana DailyDope with Nikita Rana[/caption] Google and Facebook have become internet superpowers by monitoring everything that we access online. Even though we haven’t elected them democratically, our information is still being controlled by all these major tech companies.

And since both of these platforms are driven by ad revenue, money is the only factor that will see your content going anywhere or being discovered by any one.
