The Age of Surveillance Capitalism - Shoshana Zuboff, Carole Cadwalladr, Paul Hilder & Shahmir Sanni

Shoshana Zuboff's book, 'The Age of Surveillance Capitalism', reveals a world in which the sovereign forces in today’s economy are advertisers, manipulators, shadowy assemblages of state and private actors whose goal is to predict our behaviour, and change it. Their tools are surveillance, provocation and addiction.
IIPP presents this special public lecture featuring Shoshana Zuboff; and a panel discussion with Guardian journalist Carole Cadwalladr, Paul Hilder from openDemocracy and whistleblower Shahmir Sanni.

    @Andro mache , Interesting that you target Nancy Pelosi but ignore Mark Zuckerburg or Jeff Bezos. Who is richer, do you think? I don't know where you would get the idea that politicians drive the profits of capitalists or are instrumental in facilitating it (other than the fact they have helped corporations avoid paying taxes and often provide corporate welfare)? As we are so often told from, so-called, conservatives, politicians have no idea how to make money in the private sector. They only know how to tax and spend. It is true politicians are in a privileged position to know what to invest in. But the idea they drive capitalism so as to enrich themselves is absurd.

    Here in this country where I live currently, the government is already experimenting with chips under the skin for "a select group of the population". What qualifies for this group is of course the government itself that determines that. We have been here before as a species. Hitler and his henchmen had a similar system only it was not digital. This is a phenomenon that needs daily confrontation and any politician that fails to fight this is part of the problem and not part of the solution.

    I think the people who are trying to make this very important issue a left/right political thing is very wrong. This is how misunderstanding and polarization are created. It is not hard to make a long list of power abusers from on "the left" as well. Look for common stands on specific issues instead of fueling a truly nonsensical and destructive left/right polarization.

    Bob Binny, a former Intelligence officer, warned NSA that there was too much data for their agents to shift through, including keywords, etc., to assess quick info of impending attacks. He had offered a better system, but was ignored. Then 9-11 "happened". I also feel the collection and storage only benefits those landlords of the facilities, and uses far too much electricity, unnecessary, in the process. 5G will dwarf what we do now. It is imperative to fight this rollout! The 20-100x the intensity will counteract any benefits from Smart City or gadget assistance that is proposed. 27 frequencies, military grade antenaes, thousands of satelites, small cell towers every 100 meters---we cannot accept this diabolical sabbotage.

    Had me until they started discussing Brexit. Seems like the Remain side are trying to blame someone else for their failures. The fact is, those on the Remain side tended to prosper while the rest of the country lost. There's a reason why everyone hates London. I don't think that many people were influenced that much when it came to that vote, in the same why people were going to vote for or against Hillary in 2016. That's said, Ms. Zuboff's thesis is spot on.

    "If something is 'free' it's likely that you are the product" We have always had surveillance, nothing new and not particularly bad, sometimes essential. We like to keep an eye on things, we are risk averse and so keep an eye out is normal function. T he message I get from Shoshana is that gathering data to make a coherent view is bad and that markets are essentially bad. This is simply yet more of the doom and gloom style writing that is so un-creative. Folk bought into surveillance with their choices and they can buy out of it the same way. If folk were particularly concerned they would only buy phones that didn't feedback data to the networks etc. "Surveillance provocation and addiction" I guess these are ominous sounding trigger words designed to sell the idea.
