Re: <nettime> No Soap! Radio? |
Stahlman's is a pretty good critique of Eric Schmidt's and Jared Cohen's "The New Digital Age," which features exemplar Internet successes, Google, Amazon, Facebook and Apple. And blurbed enthusiastically in advance by Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Henry Kissinger, General Michael Hayden, Madeleine Albright, Walter Isaacson, Robert B. Zoellick, Michael Bloomberg, Brent Scowcroft, Richard Branson, et al. <http://newdigitalage.com/a/praise.html>http://newdigitalage.com/a/praise.html It envisions the entire earth hynptized by cellphones and personal media, overturning tyrants, advancing democracy, swarming public discourse, and caring not at all about tech-wealth accumulation and bountiful cooperation with global spy agencies. "If you have nothing to hide, forget about privacy."
