A few years ago I published an article where I explained the “Silicon Doctrine,” the ideology underpinning digital capitalism. Some parts are now outdated, but I think it has aged well and clearly explains the ideological foundations of Silicon Valley capitalism. www.triple-c.at/index.php/tr...

@francispakes.bsky.social has just published a wonderful review of my book The Crimes of Digital Capitalism (better than the book itself! 😅). If the book were even half as good as Francis makes it sound, you wouldn’t waste a second before reading it 😉 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

This week we recommend: "No mine in Gállok: Ecocide and colonialism in Swedish-occupied Sápmi".

The Crimes of Digital Capitalism was reviewed in the Journal of White Collar and Corporate Crime. What I said about Big Tech feels even truer, worse, under rising technofascism. Still, this book may help in the struggles ahead. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... 📖 by @nyupress.bsky.social

Did you know that in the short period between 2011 and 2014, Spain's two main police forces - the National Police and the Civil Guard - were involved in the surveillance of almost 100 MPs from left-wing, Basque and Catalan organisations? Want to know more? ojs.library.queensu.ca/index.php/su...

Ya tengo en mis manos este importante libro que la buena gente de @omal-info.bsky.social se ha currado. Una radiografia certera del capitalismo desarrollista "verde, oliva y digital"

Sick of Elon Musk, Bezos and all that crappy mafia? Want to know more about digital capitalism and techno-solutionism? See you next Thursday and Friday here!

Do not miss this 🖤🔥🖤

The big tech criminals in this photo have rigged elections, spied on everyone, crushed unions & drained massive amounts of water—racking up $5B+ in fines. Yet they’re honored, & we still rely on them. Why? I tackle this in The Crimes of Digital Capitalism, out next March with @nyupress.bsky.social

El viernes 7 estaremos en la presentación de Manual Para Destapar a un Policía Infiltrado. Apoyando a las compañeras que han sufrido la violencia del estado capitalista y abogando por pasar a la iniciativa política para avanzar en la despolicialización de todos los ámbitos de nuestra vida.

NOVEDAD 📚✨ 'Enemigos del imperio: Los orígenes coloniales, racistas y opresores del Estado español' Un análisis de Aitor Jiménez sobre la herencia colonial y esclavista que ha moldeado instituciones como la Guardia Civil y la Audiencia Nacional ¡Ya está llegando a librerías!🎈

Slow books for turbo-capitalist times. Not a word about Nvidia or DeepSeek, yet... perhaps one of the best ways to understand today's techno-political landscape.

No se si es una maravilla pero la verdad ha quedado guapo ;). Imperiofobia activa, antifascismo epistémico y mala ostia ACAB en este librito 🖤🔥.

Enemigos del Imperio.... Disponible ya en las mejores librerias. Gracias @traficantes.bsky.social 🖤🔥🖤

Un gustazo tenerlo ya x aqui. Gracias peñita de @versolibros.com. Próximamente en sus librerias y centros sociales de confianza. ¿Qué que encontrarás dentro? Filosofía ACAB, historia antiimperialista y antifascismo espistémico, all at once 🖤💫🖤.

Law & Tech nerds of the world… Salome Viljoen, Jake Goldenfein, Julie Cohen, Karen Yeung, and Katharina Pistor are all fantastic. But does anyone know of a book as insightful and provocative as Code 2.0?

Club de Madrid? You mean Clinton, Aznar, and Calderón? If these are our friends, we are doomed. We don’t want to break up Google. What we need is a more democratic internet, which means socialising the means of digital production and taking collective responsibility for burdens and benefits.

You wanna learn about neoliberalism, patriarchy, and techno-authoritarianism? I strongly recommend you listen to the Joe Rogan interviews with Zuckerberg and Musk. Tons of testosterone, (bad) libertarianism, hunting, jiu-jitsu, and AI bullshit. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k1e...

This is one of my favourite essays from recent years, a surprisingly fine, accurate, and sophisticated explanation of how cybernetic politics reduce life, both human and non-human, to numbers, information, and capital. www.politybooks.com/blog-detail/...

Cecilia Rikap has become one of the most interesting thinkers on power, technology, and money. Whether you're (the last) New Brandeis supporter, a committed socialist, or simply someone with common sense, you should read her work or at least listen to her.

Maurizio Lazzarato argues that critical theorists have downplayed the role of civil war and class struggle in social life, resulting in a confused and pacified idea of politics. Only by restoring their centrality can we clarify our present situation. illwill.com/new-world-or...

Paris Marx nails it, as usual. Truly important, but it's not just about water, which is not (yet) an issue in the Basque Country, for example. The question is: what do we need these data centres for? Who decides? Who will cash the profits? Who will suffer the consequences?

Hem comprat l'espai amb recursos propis (sense bancs ni cooperatives de crèdit) això ha suposat un esforç molt important per una cooperativa petita i és per això que us demanem que ens ajudeu a adequar un espai que volem que sigui també vostre. 👇 Goteo.cc/casaparaules

Voted! But deep in their heart everybody knows that they all win!

One of the most worrying things about the crimes of the powerful is how we’ve naturalized their harm and shifted the burden of proof onto ordinary citizens. Just got rejected from a major conference for "bias" on X being criminal. Mate, Brazil banned it & the EU launched proceedings under the DSA.

Thrilled to announce my new book will be released on March 25! A toolkit for understanding big tech criminality as routinized social harm essential for digital capitalism. Many thanks to the incredible team at @admscentre.org.au and @nyupress.bsky.social ! Pre-order at nyupress.org/978147982169...

¿Sabías que el Estado español es uno de los mas policializados de Europa? En Euskal Herria hay el doble de policías por habitante que en Alemania o el triple que en Dinamarca? Esto son 70.000 policías "de más" solo ajustándonos a la media Europea. Estas cosas ven en @sinpoli.bsky.social .
