La Cumbre que no fue: antecedentes de la CMSI a veinte aรฑos de su celebraciรณn


Por Inรฉs Binder y Santiago Garcรญa Gago, Radios Libres
Este aรฑo se cumplen 20 aรฑos de la Cumbre Mundial de la Sociedad de la Informaciรณn (CMSI)...
A veinte aรฑos de aquel evento, nos parece conveniente hacer memoria de cรณmo y quiรฉn construyen los consensos sobre el modelo de desarrollo tecnolรณgico. No exclusivamente como un ejercicio histรณrico, si no para estar pendientes de los designios de las tecnologรญas que estรกn en pleno desarrollo en este momento.

Extracto de la nota publicada en la Revista digital Internet Ciudadana Nยฐ 14 โ€“ Julio 2025 โ€“ ยซCMSI+20: ยฟComunicaciรณn en manos del Big Tech o de los pueblos?ยซ

Why does Europe need the Digital Markets Act enforced NOW?

There is strong public support for the enforcement of our laws and curtailing the abuses of #BigTech. It is crucial for the future of Europe and that is why we think it's time to act.

Ja, im groรŸen stimme ich dir zu. Dennoch kann ein ALT-Text auch in der App oder im Browser sinnvoll sein, da ich dort andere verkรผrzte oder grรถรŸere Infos zum Bild unterbringen kann. Es kommt wie immer darauf an was das Bild zeigt und was ich damit transportieren will.

They accuse the petitioners of demanding something that they have never demanded and point out negative effects that will never occur. Why are you doing this? Why doesn't the VGE argue honestly? Are they afraid that if they put forward the real arguments, their business model will collapse?

We are increasingly moving towards a world in which I have to buy a new cooking pot every 2 years because the manufacturer has developed a new model and thus deactivated the old one...

If people were smart, they would stop buying AAA games, or even better, pirate them, if we can't legally own our games, then might as well go Yarr Harr Harr on their asses

Note: Piracy it's a completely valid way of boycott

This is pretty much why Grimm and I did not have kids.
in reply to Muse

As a professional, the mother of my child made more than I. I became a stay-at-home dad for the first six years of my kid's life because after doing the arithmetic it was the best choice. Mind you, we live in the United States of America where unwealthy lives are utterly disposable and eminently replaceable. Still, we got by while childless C-level a**holes making six figures marveled at how we managed to not only get by but stay out of debt (it's called a spreadsheet, you fscking over-privileged morons.)


Heads up #PermaComputing Berlin friends. Our next Meet-Up is approaching:

# permacomputing & postmarketOS #

13. July 2025 at 19:00
@offline
Lichtenrader Str. 49

Artist and Designer Chaline Bang ( @chalinebang ) will talk about her personal adventures and collective experiments in permacomputing. She is a member of the Rotterdam-based research group _permacomputing evenings_ and will share how they learned to build servers out of obsolete smartphones using postmarketOS. The group conducted experiments into practical techniques and aesthetic approaches as well as organizing public events with outside researchers.

Inspired by some tech bro saying their algorithm found this writing so awful it couldn't process it. I decided to have a read. It's wonderful. Well written and interesting.

What's more. It made me think about door knobs and handles. Everywhere I've ever lived has had handles. To the point I've always thought lever style door handles were the norm. Door knobs are rare. So rare, that at a friend's house recently. I couldn't work out how to open the front door...
