Capitalismo delle piattaforme e delle emozioni
by de petra giulio Sept. 20, 2017

Sept. 20, 2017

Sperando sia di vostro interesse segnalo il seminario che si svolgerà a Roma il prossimo 5 ottobre con Lelio Demichelis. Giulio <http://www.centroriformastato.it/wp-content/uploads/logo-scd-stretto.png> Nell’ambito del progetto “Scuola Critica del digitale” il *Centro per la riforma dello Stato* organizza per *giovedì 5 ottobre*, *dalle ore 16 alle 19, in via della Dogana Vecchia 5, a Roma, *il seminario: *“Capitalismo delle piattaforme e delle emozioni”* con Lelio Demichelis Un viaggio tra *forme *e *norme* tecniche e capitalistiche di *governamentalizzazione* della vita, nel vecchio-nuovo tecno-capitalismo. Con qualche deviazione nelle *Metamorfosi *di Ovidio. *Il capitalismo sta cambiando nuovamente e in modalità tecnica, divenendo appunto tecno-capitalismo. Dove a dominare non è solo la forma-merce (anche), quanto e soprattutto la forma-tecnica, cioè il modo con cui la tecnica – intesa come apparato di apparati, oggi la rete – modella su di sé, facendone una copia conforme e congrua, la società intera e l’intera vita degli individui. A nostra insaputa, o con il nostro entusiastico consenso, perché la tecnica ci affascina, ci seduce, ci fa innamorare di sé. Forme capitalistiche e tecniche che però producono specifiche norme di organizzazione e di funzionamento sociale, ben più vincolanti di una legge.* *...** continua qui* http://www.centroriformastato.it/capitalismo-delle-piattaforme-delle-emozio…

Pro Publica: "Facebook Enabled Advertisers to Reach ‘Jew Haters’"

*Facebook Enabled Advertisers to Reach ‘Jew Haters’** * /After being contacted by ProPublica, Facebook removed several anti-Semitic ad categories and promised to improve monitoring.// / by Julia Angwin, Madeleine Varner and Ariana Tobin Sept. 14, 4 p.m. EDT Want to market Nazi memorabilia, or recruit marchers for a far-right rally? Facebook’s self-service ad-buying platform had the right audience for you. Until this week, when we asked Facebook about it, the world’s largest social network enabled advertisers to direct their pitches to the news feeds of almost 2,300 people who expressed interest in the topics of “Jew hater,” “How to burn jews,” or, “History of ‘why jews ruin the world.’” […] Continua qui: https://www.propublica.org/article/facebook-enabled-advertisers-to-reach-je…

"US cross-border data deal could open surveillance floodgates"
by J.C. DE MARTIN Sept. 19, 2017

* US cross-border data deal could open surveillance floodgates* Cynthia Wong 18 September 2017 /Internet users should assess whether their domestic system would adequately prevent their government from abusing the arrangement, and whether local law enforcement can be held accountable./ In July 2016, the United States Department of Justice released a legislative proposal <https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2994379-2016-7-15-US-UK-Biden-With-…> that could vastly increase surveillance by other governments with the direct assistance of Silicon Valley. The unprecedented proposal would allow certain governments to demand the contents of Internet communications such as e-mails and chats directly from US companies, rather than going through cross-border law enforcement treaties that have long been in place to protect rights. The US has already negotiated the outlines of such a deal with the United Kingdom and the Justice Department proposal would extend it to other governments.

BBC: "Will Germany's new law kill free speech online?"
by J.C. DE MARTIN Sept. 18, 2017

Sept. 18, 2017

*Will Germany's new law kill free speech online?* By Patrick Evans BBC News /in October a new law comes into force in Germany that will impose huge fines on social networks if they don't delete illegal content including hate speech. It's touched off a huge debate over freedom of expression and has attracted an unusual collection of opponents.// / The law is called Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz - NetzDG for short. It obliges the biggest social networks - those with more than two million German users - to take down "blatantly illegal" hate speech within 24 hours of it being reported. For material that's less obviously violating the law, networks such as Facebook and Instagram will have seven days to consider and, if appropriate, delete posts. Failure to meet these deadlines could lead to fines of up to €50m. Critics argue the short timeframes coupled with the potentially large fines will lead social networks to be overly cautious and delete huge amounts of content - even things that are perfectly legal. But the law's supporters, and the German government, argue that it will force social media companies to proactively deal with online incitement and hate speech.
