NonilexAMERICAN PANOPTICON
The #Trump admin is pooling #data on Americans. Experts fear what comes next.
by Ian Bogost & Charlie Warzel
If you were tasked with building a #panopticon, your design might look a lot like the #information stores of the US federal govt—a collection of large, complex agencies, each making use of enormous volumes of data provided by or collected from #citizens.

Ulli LustMy campaign on Instagram and Facebook for a migration to the Fediverse. Funnily enough, it brought a lot of new friends from the Fediverse itself.

The Fediverse Isn’t the Future. It’s the Present We’ve Been Denied.
For years, the internet has been shrinking. Not in size, not in data, but in ownership. A vast, decentralized network of personal blogs, forums, and independent communities has been corralled into a handful of paved prison yards controlled by a few massive corporations. Every post, every “friend,” every creative work—
Driving a Tesla on public roads is becoming increasingly problematic in Europe.

Some work I did last year using AI to analyze 450 pages of public comments on the Federal Trade Commission "Green Guides" (representing submissions from 40+ organizations). Do the Green Guides have a future? #climate #sustainability #AI #greenwashing #greenmarketing | https://www.changeclimate.org/blog/3-ways-the-federal-trade-commission-can-put-a-stop-to-climate-greenwashing
Greetings friends. As I say in my bio, I’m mostly here to listen. Glad to feel a much more thoughtful vibe over here than on the bird app. As a new dad I’m very interested in dialogue around #climatechange / #behavioralhealth / #socialjustice. By day I’m immersed in #designthinking and #BehaviorChange. Otherwise I’m focused on establishing my humble plot of land as a haven for #nativeplants and am always on the lookout for new music — been digging lots of #ambienttechno of late. Cheers!
