Sick & tired of tech oligarchs & how disinformation is monetised? Check out the paper by Julia Rone (and follow her on Bluesky!) & I published today in @cogitatiomac.bsky.social: “Reversing the Privatisation of the Public Sphere: Democratic Alternatives to the EU’s Regulation of Disinformation” 👇

Hi. I'm sharing a pre-print by @anavaldi.bsky.social and me that is gaining traction @ssrn.bsky.social.

Critical minerals policies are generating pressures to create 'technological peripheries' in both the South and North. We look at Chile and Spain.

“If you consume water somewhere to the point where it affects biodiversity in one area, that cannot be offset by having a nice project elsewhere. You’re going to cause irreversible damage if you keep to that logic.”

Thanks for sharing your insights with us, Sebastián.

Will AI destroy the planet? AI is using more energy and water than ever. Will it ever be sustainable – or could it be the final nail in our climate coffin?

I talked to @globallf.bsky.social about AI and sustainability.

We have to question how Big Tech is 'offsetting' AI's environmental harm.
