  1. Many of us still treat privacy as a personal habit: stronger passwords, cleaner settings, fewer things shared.

    But privacy is also about power: who gets to know, classify, predict, influence, and decide what happens next.

    The fight for privacy is a fight for rights.

  6. Man liest gerade, dass LinkedIn wohl ziemlich genau weiß, was auf unseren Rechnern so installiert ist. Einfach so. Im Hintergrund.

    Und plötzlich wirkt dieses „wir hören nur zu, wenn ihr sprecht“ ein bisschen großzügig formuliert. Vielleicht ist die eigentliche Frage nicht, ob geschaut wird, sondern wie viel wir davon einfach hinnehmen. Mit Profilbild.

  7. Diese Woche verschiebt sich mehr,
    als man auf den ersten Blick sieht.

    Routen ändern sich, Lieferketten ziehen leise neue Linien, und irgendwo wird entschieden, was noch fließt – und was nicht mehr.

    Kein Knall. Nur ein anderes Gleichgewicht.
    Vielleicht ist genau das die neue Form von Bewegung.

  8. Guten Morgen ☕️

    Diese Woche wird mit Zöllen gedroht,
    wird in Pressekonferenzen erklärt,
    wird von Strategien gesprochen.

    Und gleichzeitig
    werden irgendwo Häuser getroffen,
    Menschen zählen neu, was noch da ist,
    und versuchen einfach, den nächsten Tag zu erreichen.

    Dazwischen ein Präsident,
    der wirkt, als würde er seine eigene Geschichte erzählen.

    Und man sitzt da,
    liest das alles,
    und merkt, wie weit das auseinanderliegt.

  9. Guten Morgen ☕️

    Alle reden gerade wieder über KI-Regulierung,
    als könnte man Zukunft in Paragrafen sortieren. Ich lese das und hab eher das Gefühl: wir verhandeln gerade, wie viel Mensch wir uns noch leisten wollen.

    Draußen zwitschern die Vögel komplett unreguliert.

    Vielleicht erstmal da anfangen.

  10. Guten Morgen ☕️

    Montag ist ja eigentlich nur ein Sonntag, der zu früh aufgestanden ist. Ich scrolle so durch die ersten Tech-News, alle schon wieder sehr ernst, sehr wichtig, und draußen macht einfach der Frühling weiter, als hätte er davon nichts mitbekommen.

    Vielleicht ist das die bessere Strategie.

  11. Guten Morgen ☕️

    Sonntag. Die Welt ist einen Tick leiser,
    selbst die Timeline wirkt, als hätte sie noch nicht richtig Lust. Ich sitz hier mit meinem Kaffee und es ist klar: heute muss gar nichts. Habt einen schönen Sonntag ✨️

  12. There’s a difference between being known… and being reduced to what can be known.

    Profiles don’t just describe us. They stabilise us. They turn movement into pattern, possibility into probability.

    And once that version exists, systems begin to trust it more than the person.

    It is consistent. Predictable. Actionable.

    You are not.

  17. Morgens um acht. Kaffee in der Hand. Ich geh kurz durch die Timeline. Da stehen sie in der Pressekonferenz und erzählen was von Steuern und dass sich „alle freuen“. Hmmm ... wer genau ist eigentlich alle?

    Ich bleib erstmal beim Kaffee.

  18. Zwischen großen Weltlagen und kleinen digitalen Nebenschauplätzen scheint gerade alles gleichzeitig wichtig – und dann wieder erstaunlich egal. Vielleicht ist genau das der Zustand der Dinge: viel Bewegung, wenig Klarheit – und trotzdem dreht sich alles weiter.

    Ich notiere mir das unter „menschlich, allzu menschlich“ und koche erstmal Kaffee.

  21. The right to gather doesn’t fail only when it is removed.

    It also fails when the conditions that make gathering possible - shared awareness, visibility, overlap - are no longer reliably there.

    A right can exist in law and still lose its force in practice.

  27. New Episode with guest Charlotte Henry and her new #book:

    STREAMING WARS: How Getting Everything We Want Changed Entertainment Forever

    We used to learn who someone was by looking at their record collection.

    Walk into their home, scan the #vinyl on the shelves, and you'd know instantly— #Metallica fan, #jazz enthusiast, #Beatles completist.

    Media was how we expressed ourselves without saying a word.

    That's gone now.

    You can't browse someone's #Netflix queue the way you could their DVD collection. Can't judge their #Kindle library like you could scan their bookshelf. Can't see their #Spotify playlist on a first date.

    Journalist Charlotte Henry explores this shift—and so much more—in her new book "Streaming Wars: How Getting Everything We Want Changed Entertainment Forever."

    In my latest Redefining #Society & #Technology Podcast episode, Charlotte and I discuss:

    📺 Why the 2023 #Hollywood strikes mark streaming's most symbolic moment 🔄 The paradox: we cut the cord, but we're recreating cable #TV bundles

    📊 How Netflix's most-watched content isn't what you think (hint: it's background shows)

    🎭 The real economic impact on writers, actors, and below-the-line workers

    🤖 Why AI might actually INCREASE the value of human-made work

    🎵 From Metallica vs. Napster to today's streaming economy

    We're living through a massive media transformation. Charlotte captures this exact moment—before everything changes again.

  29. New Discussion Paper on "Dynamics of Data Work in AI Implementation Processes":

    In their study, Lea Schneidemesser, Daniel Schneiß, and Jana Heim investigate the role of data work in the implementation of #AI systems in traditional industries, exploring the labor and power dynamics embedded in these processes.

  35. AI won’t kill literature, it’ll just colonise the middle ground where most writing lives. From calligraphy to photography to synthesisers, every “threat” to the arts created more art. The monasteries will remain.
