I think one of the best ways to challenge these online Delphi-type “consultations” is to call them out. When I respond to them (which is not often for the reasons given in the video) I always keep a copy of the questions as well as the answers, by pdf, or if that doesn’t work, screen grab. I see it as a kind of historical proof of the way we are being manipulated.
Even better – make it into a video, as Richard Vobes did recently on the UK government’s Digital Identity Survey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcrwXQdGkn0
He filmed the consultation, detailing the questions, with his comments on how manipulative they were and his suggestions on how to answer them.
During the Plandemic in 2020 the Scottish Government held several online public “feedback” sessions which were simply exercises in public manipulation. I participated in one on the question of whether lockdown should be extended. I noticed that any response suggesting that lockdown should not be extended was “locked by a moderator” – usually for being “similar to other responses”. I made a video showing the process and how it was being manipulated, and uploaded it to Steemit. It was not the most interesting video ever, and I didn’t expect anyone to watch it, but I saw it as a kind of public historical record of how anti-lockdown voices were being shut down.
When the London traffic congestion zone was expanded, many people drew attention to the fact that public consultations had been very strongly against the measure, but they were ignored. I think this is waking more people up to the government’s disregard of democracy, to the extent that some are questioning the legal basis of these regulations.
