I’d like to talk about HOW to get through these times and it’s pretty simple – Be Rich, Live Poor. If you can do that, doing it tough doesn’t feel so bad. https://inkican.com/stl-be-rich-live-poor/ #scificommunity #scifi #sciencefiction #sciencefictioncommunity #ideasworthspreading #tedtalk

#TEDtalk that all should listen to, and ideally all should comprehend…

I chose to come back to TED because I'm reclaiming my story, my words.

We are not powerless.

The 30,000 people who supported me proved that – we ar not powerless.
Because we know who we are, and we know what we stand for.

And my question to Silicon Valley is, do you?

Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk. Your are not gods. You are men, and you are careless.

You think that by allying yourself with an autocrat you will be protected. That's not how history works. It's not even how oligarchy works.

[…]

You are sucking up to a tuyrant who is trying to destroy the laws who made your businesses possible.

You are collaborators.

You are complicit in a regime of fear and cruelty.

Don't experiment on children

And in years to come,  allowing your child to be data-harvested from birth will be considered child abuse.

You didn't know, but now you do.

Privacy is power.

Do not obey in advance

We now are in techno-authoritarainism.
We have to learn how to digitally disobey.

[…]

Don't accept the cookies, don't give your real name.

Der #TedTalk von Journalistin #CaroleCadwalladr ist meine dringende Empfehlung.

Sie will aufmerksam machen, wachrütteln und gibt ein paar kleine Empfehlungen. Ihr Rede ist Teil einer modernen Aufklärung.

This is what a digital coup looks like

Tech bros' unchecked power fosters a digital coup, undermining democracy with tools they create. Resist by reclaiming data privacy.

"Will the End of #Economic #Growth Come by #Design — or #Disaster? | Gaya Herrington"

"Our choice isn't whether to keep growing or not. Is whether the end of growth will come by design or disaster. Either we choose our own limits or we will have them forced upon us."

”We now should start living as if it is East Germany, and Instagram is the STASI”
-Carole Cadwalladr

Great talk. From a british journalist who was not only targeted by a huge slander campaign online for exposing links between Facebook & Brexit, but also a SLAPP lawsuit. Which she won thanks to public support.

"Cherish facts and privacy. You're gonna miss them when they're gone."

About #broligarchy, how #Instagram is now the Stasi and we should begin to act as if we were living in the GDR. How to speak to power and how we are stronger than we think.

What a brilliant, powerful and courageous #Tedtalk by Carole #Cadwalladr.
Please watch and share.

Sometimes a movie franchise will disappoint us, or we don't get the story we wanted. That's why I created Your Scifi Emotional Crisis Plan

Netflix just released a 9-minute TED Talk on how they use #eBPF to track your every move with precision that would make even Big Brother blush . Spoiler alert: it's all about #FlowExporter, a sidecar that sounds more like a knockoff superhero than a networking tool .
