Tone of article isn't very encyclopedic
editArticle has a bit too much of the author's voice and reads like a homework assignment or a edutainment video:
"With constantly evolving digital platforms and new business models, individuals or groups are always on the lookout to gain an unfair advantage over others using the government or other institutions."
This is good for maybe an educational pop-science textbook or article but not Wikipedia...Needs to include more "according to X in the reference", etc.TheWikiJedi (talk) 16:46, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
