Tag: cryptocurrencies

The currency of the 21st century is information 

What is the effect of #geekproblem, of privacy and encryption, and their fetishization of #cryptocurrencies?

The market (liberal individualism and private property that comes with it) provides information on value based on explotion greed and selfishness.

#Opendata and #metadata provides information on value based on connection, cooperation and altruism.

A #4opens approach spreads connection, cooperation and altruism into our social world.

A market approach (privacy, individualism and private property based on encryption) allows exploitation, greed and selfishness to be at the centre of our society.

This is an old ideological and political divide that is not talked about at all in the #geekproblem as the is “no such things as society, only individuals and their family’s ”.

Society is based on social norms, walking down the street in safety – soft

Code is hard norms. A policeman on every street corner – hard

The question that we need answers to is how can we talk soft (social) power to the hard power (code) of the #geekproblem when for them such norms are invisible. They can’t hear what we are saying.

All code is ideology solidified into action – most contemporary code is capitalism, this is hardly a surprise if you think about this for a moment. Yes you can try and act on any ideology on top of this code, but the outcome and assumptions are preprogramed… cant find any good links on this…
