One wonders if, as of 2018, there remained any non co-opted hackers who are fighting back, or willing to do so, while acting autonomously from the capital and the capitalist state.
I had my informed opinion about Barcelona but hearing from Simona now, I think some one either has to spell it out, or give some references to open up what sort of fraud it is, if it is. In support of for Carlo's response, or for extended version of his point, check out this fully automated loading port in China <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0saKRkVvx8>. This discussion is not 'digital fudalism' and how to fight against it. It is about the number of 'poor'oletariat (plus precariat) or the world reaching up to 4 to 6 billion if not more; surveillance/meta-data capitalism and its mechanisms rising for socialisation-control-dispose of these people. In this nexus it is also about how the future of IoT will evolve around the cooperation between globalist/atanticist ruling classes and China's state classes; the OBOR project, the networked hubs of automated docks and ports so on. This is the base of the emerging new shit. I though that the Barcelona vision of techno sovereignty, or fearless cities, were linked to a fraud mainly because of Morozov's, choosing Barcelona as a base, as a Soros agent as he was during the Eastern European transition operation (online transitions). This has been a global good governance vision of the 1980-1990 era, before the rentier money capital high jacked the commanding heights. There is no turning back to good global governance neoliberal bullshit. No voice coming from Barcelona, nor from other places, addressed how hackers (as McKenize Wark uses the term) will take on the mission of bridging and uniting the proletariat of the global south and precariat of the global north, to rise up against the oppressors of all kinds weather state, corporate, financial, industrial, military... The oppressed people's reverse-engineers, or hackers, are those think of and aim at the enemy at that global level. Like great worker engineer and socialist Netti does in Bogdanov's 1912 novel Engineer Menni <https://archive.org/details/BogdanovRedStar>, yet in another planet. The question is can we manage what Netti did but on Earth?
