The core problem with "surveillance pricing" isn't the pricing, it's the *surveillance*, and the way to fix this is to ban most forms of data collection. There's simply no good reason to allow companies to build highly detailed dossiers full of our personal information.

We're bringing #TakeBackTech III to you! Over the next 3 weeks, we’re livestreaming main stage moments on LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube. First up is our opening conversation with award-winning author @naomiaklein.bsky.social THIS TUESDAY, 5/21, at 7PM ET | 4PM PT. streamyard.com/watch/ETqCBv...

"People everywhere are picking up the mantle of collective resistance." @karenhao.bsky.social's latest op-ed for @theguardian.com reminds us that our communities mobilizing against the #AI empire continues to make #BigTech vulnerable. www.theguardian.com/technology/c...

The Institute for Local Self-Reliance (ILSR) just launched the new season of the Building Local Power podcast, and it’s all about exposing the hidden costs that #BigTech developers don’t want you to know about #DataCenters. 🔎 Listen to the first 2 episodes NOW: share.transistor.fm/s/73566538

Today marks one year since Trump “declared” the end of the #DigitalEquity Act, cutting access to internet, work & school opportunities, and essential services, particularly in the Black Rural South. Call your local officials to preserve vital funding that closes the #DigitalDivide (link below).

Join an international panel TOMORROW at UTC 2PM (10AM ET | 7AM PT) for “Displacement by Design: Migration in a Time of Global Crisis.” The panel will talk about the colonial roots that make up today's migration regimes and challenge dominant narratives through a Global Majority lens.

#Tech billionaires want control over media narratives to uphold their power. Our ED, @stevenrenderos.bsky.social, joins Andrew Callaghan on @channel5bluesky.bsky.social to talk about how tech oligarchs have bought our media system and what alternatives look like. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CpV...

This May Day, people in NYC, Chicago, Missouri, Seattle, and Philly are calling attention to the ways Amazon makes life worse for everyone – by abusing workers, trashing the planet, and powering technology used by ICE and the Israeli military.

While Jeff Bezos plans his Met Gala outfit, people around the world are holding him accountable for what really matters: the damage Amazon is doing to workers, the climate, and human rights. #MayDay

Our Sr. Research Specialist, Jai Dulani, speaks to @counterstream.bsky.social on the false narratives #BigTech is trying to sell you — and how we can flip the script to center our people and the solutions we hold. No #tech product will save us or our planet. www.peaceandriot.org/jamming-the-...

I highly encourage folks to give this episode a listen. Excellent discussion on Palantir with @gilduran.com, the folks at @mediajustice.bsky.social and @purgepalantir.bsky.social. Peter Thiel’s Palantir is watching you.

Thank you to the 500+ movement leaders who joined us last weekend for #TakeBackTech III! 🥳 We all left with sharper analysis, deeper relationships, and a clearer sense of what this movement is capable of. The tech oligarchy has made their choice. Take Back Tech is how we make ours.

Jacinta González from @mediajustice.bsky.social has been sharing important findings about Palantir's role in US deportations and will be one of the presenters at our April 28th webinar, Data Activism in the Age of Trump. Register here: www.concordia.ca/cuevents/art...

Our ED, @stevenrenderos.bsky.social, lets us in on how the Dodgers' complicated history became more than a team — but a beacon of pride for Latine LA.

Today’s White House announcement calls to deregulate state laws attempting to hold AI accountable, while giving no real protections for energy cost spikes, artists whose IP are being stolen, and jobs that are being replaced. This framework only protects tech billionaires, not our people.
