Europe's path between surveillance, capitalism and communism

Data collection, social scoring and our privacy - our guest author sees two dominant systems here, namely surveillance capitalism and communism.

When I pause for a moment and try to summarize the last ten years of digital technology history in a few sentences, the following remains: There are two dominant systems.

One is the US Facebook and Google system, which collects data from its users in order to generate revenue from its advertisers*. And secondly, the Chinese social credit system, with the help of which state power rewards desired behavior and punishes unwanted behavior.

For the US system, Harvard professor Shosanna Zuboff coined the term "surveillance capitalism. The Chinese system could therefore be characterized as "surveillance communism.

While the US-American system has already proven its worth over the past few years in the interests of Facebook and Google shareholders, the Chinese system is still on the verge of being baptized. Various systems are currently being tested in pilot regions and cities to test and optimize the algorithms. From 2020, a uniform social credit system is to be rolled out across the board as far as possible.

The Age of Surveillance Capitalism - The Fight for a Human Future at the New Frontier of Power

The challenges to humanity posed by the digital future, the first detailed examination of the unprecedented form of power called "surveillance capitalism," and the quest by powerful corporations to predict and control our behavior.

In this masterwork of original thinking and research, Shoshana Zuboff provides startling insights into the phenomenon that she has named surveillance capitalism. The stakes could not be higher: a global architecture of behavior modification threatens human nature in the twenty-first century just as industrial capitalism disfigured the natural world in the twentieth.

The Social Dilemma

Why the algorithms of #TikTok are possibly optimized more for screentime and less for suicide removal is explained very clearly in the new Netflix documentary "The Social Dilemma". Director Jeff Orlowski has put all the ethics big shots from Silicon Valley in front of the camera - from Tristan Harris to Shoshanna Zuboff - and lets them once again unravel the business model of surveillance capitalism in a striking way.

We Are All Algorithms Now - Is that what's really destroying the legitimacy of our democracy?

I’ve never felt this way about an election before. For my entire adult life, campaigns could be exhilarating, tedious, crowded with incident or laden with foreboding, but you always felt that, at some point, there would be a resolution. The votes would be counted; the exit polls parsed; a decision made; and both sides would respect it. The one time that didn’t happen — in 2000 — I felt for the first time an inkling of what I feel in every part of my psyche now: a sense that the system itself was buckling.

👉🏼 ..(..)...
And the reason this dystopian scenario is so credible is not just the fault of these political actors. It’s ours too — thanks to the impact of social media. I think we’ve under-estimated just how deep the psychological damage has been in the Trump era — rewiring the minds of everyone, including your faithful correspondent, in ways that make democratic discourse harder and harder and harder to model. The new Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma, is, for that reason, a true must-watch. It doesn’t say anything shockingly new, but it persuasively weaves together a whole bunch of points to reveal just how deeply and thoroughly fucked we are. Seriously, take a look.

👉🏼 ..(..)..
For #Facebook and #Google and #Instagram and #Twitter, the business goal quickly became maximizing and monetizing human attention via #addictive #dopamine hits. Attention, they meticulously found, is correlated with emotional intensity, outrage, shock and provocation. Give artificial intelligence this simple knowledge about what distracts and compels humans, let the algorithms do their work, and the profits snowball. The cumulative effect — and it’s always in the same incendiary direction — is mass detachment from reality, and immersion in tribal fever.

The Markets Are Rigged

At base, the markets are a con game where the rich and powerful employ a raft of confidence men to lure suckers into the latest mania. In this game, the suckers are the general public who are left holding the bag as the market bubble bursts while the smart money swoops in to buy up the leftover assets at pennies on the dollar. In this week’s edition of The Corbett Report, James Corbett pulls back the curtain on the Wall Street casino and reveals how the house always wins the rigged games.
