Carole #Cadwalladr: “Silicon Valley has vastly more #information and #data than the Stasi had in earlier days”,
this should frighten you.
If it doesn’t then you don’t understand the risks involved in the weaponisation of data and where this could lead.

The billionaires' eugenics project: how Epstein infiltrated Harvard, muzzled the humanities and preached master-race science

Edge - Jeffrey Epstein's favourite intellectual salon - was sold to me as a gathering of the world's finest minds, writes Virginia Heffernan. The files reveal it was something far darker: a decades-long project that cloaked eugenics, race science and sexual misconduct in Ivy League respectability

The #capitalist ruling #class is psychopathic and sociopathic, mainly driven by greed, bigotry, self interest, misogyny, racism and all other kinds of hatred. #BigTech
#oppression #exploitation #authoritarianism #genocide
We need to actively reject and fight these profoundly sick bastards, that cause immense suffering among us all. A people that’s biologically driven by an intrinsic need for #connection and #care for each other.

Google is Shattering Under Its Own Weight (The IBM-ification of Google?)

I used to think Google owning the full vertical stack was a masterstroke. Like TSMC silicon, TPUs, their own data centers, proprietary models, search engine....

#AIDataCenters & Our Communities

an initiative by #ErinBrockovich

"The RACE to build #AI infrastructures is unfolding town by town across America. In some places, #dataCenters are welcomed. In others, they are delayed, contested or abandoned altogether. This MAP captures the real-world footprint of that race — revealing patterns of growth, conflict and uncertainty."

The orbital data center pitch is broken at every layer, it's just marketing that sounds cool.
There's the hardware costs (space rated is more expensive), repair or just let it be space junk, the how do you power it? the list goes on and on.

for the full exposition on the insanity --or idiocy from a certain point of view of orbital data centers scroll about halfway down my Evil vs Evil post 👇

Ik was deze avond als freelancer vanuit @publicspaces de host van de 'Weg bij Bigtech' avond in de bibliotheek van #Zutphen. De mooiste bieb van Nederland wat mij betreft, gevestigd in een oude kerk.

Dankzij het fijne, geïnteresseerde publiek werd het een hele leuke avond en kreeg ik te horen dat men het reuze interessant vond om te horen over hoe je als individu kleine stapjes kan maken om digitaal onafhankelijker te worden van #BigTech. #Doeidag kwam zelfs nog voorbij.

Nu tevreden naar huis.

Die Menschen, die am Kot-Fluss leben sind arm und haben kein Geld, um Bluttests selber zu bezahlen. Nun fehlt ihnen ihre Lebensgrundlage, die dieser Fluss für sie war, durch den Raubabbau der seltenen Erden, bei dem richtig große Firmen beteiligt sind, denn diese brauchen die seltenen Erden für ihre Produkte, von denen wir im globalen Norden alle abhängig sind. Auch ich habe ein Smartphone und Computer. (3/3) #umwelt #bigtech #thailand #kotfluss #myanmar #verschmutzung #asien #selteneerden
