Editorial position
Why BTW Media exists
Internet governance is too often described as theory, consensus, or institutional comfort while operators live with the consequences of structure, scarcity, jurisdiction, and incentives.
BTW shows how the system works when assumptions are tested: clear, uncomfortable, evidence-led reporting that keeps attention on structure rather than drama.
