"Engineers Versus Peasants? Narratives and Local Anchoring of a #Conflict Concerning a Future #DataCentre in an Alpine Valley"
This article explores the dynamics and #conflicts surrounding the establishment of a data centre in the Alpine region of #NonValley, Italy. The study reveals how web #infrastructures such as data centres are not just material supports for the #DigitalEconomy but also vectors for change in the social and environmental #imaginaries of such Alpine areas. It invites a renewal of critical studies of development and #modernisation in these #mountain areas.

Stephen Miller, the far-right Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy in the White House, is increasingly recusing himself from political matters due to potential conflicts of interest linked to his wife, Katie Miller. According to reports from The Atlantic, Katie has pursued multiple side projects, including discussions with Paramount about selling her podcast, 'The Katie Miller Podcast,' amid the proposed Paramount-Skydance merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. These developments raise concerns over conflicts of interest, especially as the deal could place CNN under the same company managing CBS News, which some insiders perceive as favorable to former President Trump. Additionally, Stephen Miller has stepped aside from issues related to artificial intelligence and space exploration because Katie has a part-time consulting contract with Elon Musk's xAI, which is now under SpaceX ownership. While White House ethics rules do not mandate recusal from sponsors of Katie's podcast, Stephen reportedly avoids interacting with them to prevent conflicts. These developments follow reports about Katie Miller's ambitious political background dating back to her college years, illustrating the couple's intertwined professional and personal engagements in the political and media landscape.
