Roberta, it’s possible to imagine other types of organization, ones that are based on democratic rather than corporatist commercial principles. But any attempt to putting in place an alternative system based on such principles would fail, first of all, for lack of means. Yanis Varoufakis has described in depth and detail how techno-feudalism works. But he is the first to admit that he has no choice but to depend on Google and the others for much of what he needs to do.

Could we achieve the same or a similar kind of connectivity with other means than by giving our work and data for free to these “feudal tech overlords”?
