Rereading Cory Doctorow’s ( @pluralistic’s ) book `The Internet Con: How to seize the means of computation`, and I’m increasingly convinced that this is the most important thing I read in 2023.
The reread is to solidify the book’s ideas and to try to figure out what I—a capable technologist who has been fighting for data portability and interoperability for 15+ years—can actually, practically, do to help.
I urge all of you to read this book, and I almost never do that kind of thing.
