• Reading: [[Internet for the People]].

  • Really enjoying it.
  • It's a great descriptor of historical process of the privatisation of what was once a public internet. As well as discussion of what (re)socialised alternatives might look like.
  • It starts with a description of the pipes - the network infrastructure. And outlines how community internet would work as an alternative.
  • Now it's moving on to the platforms. Should be good.
  • Very interesting point about the relative scales of the pipes and the platforms - Comcast worth about $260 billion, Google worth about $1.7 trillion.

• Read: [[Envisioning real utopias from within the capitalist present]]

  • To get an idea about [[Envisioning Real Utopias]].
    • Sounds worth reading.

• Listened: [[Robin Hahnel on Parecon (Part 1)]]
