The tech industry is about to get a lot worse

Whether you live in the United States or not, this week’s election is going to have rippling effects on the tech industry for years to come. Under the incoming administration, I expect a massive erosion in privacy, an increase in surveillance capitalism, a massive rollback of environmental protections, and the widespread destruction of inclusive norms. Keep your eyes open. At work, right now, a lot of the people you work with are going to be hurting badly (you might be one of them.

@cferdinandi The techno-feudalists have got their shot at real political power, yeah things will get worse.
@cferdinandi I reviewed Sarah Rose Etter’s novel, Ripe, recently. Her commentary on the gross failures of tech and hollowness of its gurus to shepherd in meaningful change for work or life, are compelling. The insidious control of information by those who will harm us seems unshakeable. https://newtownreviewofbooks.com.au/?s=Ripe&et_pb_searchform_submit=et_search_proccess&et_pb_include_posts=yes&et_pb_include_pages=yes
