Abstract

This chapter offers a discussion of the findings and their theoretical and practical implications, conclusions, limitations of this project, and thoughts on how future research can advance the ideas raised in this volume. Here, I offer a liberation technology model, based off the four sites under study, that helps us better understand what factors influence alternative media’s use of liberating technologies.
