Pluralistic: Google’s new remote attestation scheme is every bit as terrible as its old remote attestation scheme (12 Jun 2026) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

I haven't been able to find any tech journalists or outlets reporting on Section 224 of the 2027 #NDAA (H.R.8800):

"...the provision reaches across 'seemingly every area of defense tech,' including artificial intelligence, quantum technology, autonomous systems, directed energy, cyber and biotechnology. He said the most alarming terms were 'network integration' and 'data fusion,' since the bill does not clearly define them."

Has anyone seen any good coverage or analysis from tech journalists or experts on Section 224?

2027 NDAA Provision Seeks Sweeping US-Israel Defense Tech Integration

Critics warn that Section 224 could deepen both countries' military ties, which may be difficult to reverse.

Oh - so it turns out one of the core excuses for all this corporate surveillance; that it ostensibly helps us be safer, is complete bullshit because as with everything else tech, bad guys find out how to fuck with it as fast as it's rolled out while the rest of us remain pinned like butterflies under the gaze of Sauron...

Well who woulda thunk 🙄

The only individuals pulling up ladders are those in positions of #power (#political or #financial) to preserve their #self-interests. It was ever so and will remain that way until we, the people, come up with an #economic model that will curtail it (we’re still looking for that model, but there are candidates to look at). I don’t see #generational #warfare here, though it can be clothed that way as a means of shifting blame, anger, and attention away from the actual perpetrators, in what is, and always was #ClassWarfare (I.e. those in power cover multiple generations and hapless individuals are brainwashed by their propaganda).

I don’t wish to get into an argument about this. I’m just trying to inject some ‘moderation’ in the discourse. Does the #BlameGame push my buttons? Yes it does. Perhaps I should leave well enough alone and not inject myself in conversations when that happens. Experience tells me it rarely ends well. It appears I’m still learning that lesson.

So lange ein Großteil der Menschen sich aus Bequemlichkeit nicht aktiv gegen die Überwachungstechnologie entscheidet, werden die Tech-Bros einfach weiter den Planeten unter sich aufteilen.

Kurz vor Börsengang: SpaceX schließt Mega-Deal mit Google

Google ordert für monatlich 920 Millionen Dollar KI-Rechenleistung bei SpaceX. Der Vertrag läuft bis 2029. Die Details stammen aus Börsenunterlagen und passen Elon Musk gerade bestens ins Konzept.

DER SPIEGEL

If the economic system continues on its current path, human development will not be valued; the small elite that can get a living doing science—supervising the machines—will shrink ever further. The rest will simply become reverse centaurs working for the machines and their techno-feudalist overlords. Bags of flesh that can do what the machines cannot, just like an #Amazon driver.

Yanis Varoufakis’ Thesis: Technofeudalism, What Killed Capitalism. - 13 Editora

What has happened to capitalism? Beneath the surface of financial crises and the rise of digital platforms, the Greek economist Yanis Varoufakis identifies a structural shift. In "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism" (2024), he argues that the market-based system has lost its centrality and has been replaced by technofeudalism.
