Grazie è un tema importante come la sostituzione degli uomini da parte dei robots. Perchè non mandare i robots in miniera al posto delle persone?

Salon: "The Internet as we know it is dying"

by J.C. DE MARTIN

Monday, May 26, 2014 08:30 PM CEST *The Internet as we know it is dying** * /How Facebook and Google are killing the classic Internet and reinventing it in their image// / Andrew Leonard It was a week of rage, nostalgia and despair on the Internet. Sure, you could say that about any week on the Internet. But last week delivered some prime material. Check out this gamer exploding in fury at the rumor that Google --- "The King Midas of Shit!" --- might buy the hugely popular streaming gamer site Twitch TV. Or this sad note from the founder of the venerable "community weblog" MetaFilter explaining why a Google-precipitated decline in advertising revenue had forced him to lay off three much beloved staffers. Or this diatribe from a Facebook manager, savaging the current state of the media. All is not well on the Web. While the particulars of each outburst of consternation and anger vary significantly, a common theme connects them all: The relentless corporatization and centralization of control over Internet discourse is obviously not serving the public interest. The good stuff gets co-opted, bought out, or is reduced to begging for spare change on the virtual street corner. The best minds of our generation have been destroyed by web metrics, dragging themselves across a vast wasteland in search of the next clickbait headline.

"Uber Drivers Organize Themselves in Seattle, Other Drivers Look to Do Same"

by J.C. DE MARTIN

*Uber Drivers Organize Themselves in Seattle, Other Drivers Look to Do Same** * BY Sam Roudman | Tuesday, May 27 2014 About 9 months ago, Daniel Ajema, a 33-year-old law student moonlighting as a driver for Uber, ran into a fellow driver in a gas station parking lot. The man had just been fired for getting poor ratings from passengers. But as a private contractor, like every other driver for the app based transportation network, he had no recourse to the company. Even worse, the man and his wife had sunk $39,000 of their own money into buying an SUV for the express purpose of him driving for Uber. Ajema recalls the man being on the verge of tears. What could he do? Two Sundays ago, a couple hundred Uber drivers provided an answer, by forming a labor group with the help of the local Teamsters union, called the App-Based Drivers Association. The group won't have the full powers of a union, for instance leadership can't vote to make its entire membership strike. But with about a third of Seattle drivers signed on, the group hopes to use its leverage to advocate for greater transparency and responsiveness from the $12 billion <http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB1000142405270230374990457957839129073…> company.

Google launches 'right to be forgotten' webform for removal requests

by gianluca

Google launches 'right to be forgotten' webform for removal requests Company responds to EU court ruling empowering citizens to have certain links about them deleted from search results Google has launched a webpage where European citizens can request that links to information about them be taken off search results, the first step to comply with a court ruling affirming the "right to be forgotten". The company, which processes more than 90% of all web searches in Europe, has made available a webform through which people can submit their requests but has stopped short of specifying when it will remove links that meet the criteria for being taken down. Google said it had convened a committee of senior executives and independent experts to try and craft a long-term approach to dealing with what is expected to be a barrage of requests from people in the EU.
