Jacques Vallée, one of the co-creators of the Internet, explains how the acceleration of technology in an increasingly connected society is producing "impossible futures" that range from rapid collapse of major banks to the emergence of complex new forms of political power, with the Internet as both a tool and a victim. Quotes: [The KGB] arrested people at random, and brought them to their headquarters; they had one question for them: "who do you know? who do you talk to, and what do you talk about?" If somebody wanted to do that today, they would not need to arrest people, all they need to do is look at Facebook, Twitter, Google; we give this information everyday to the network and the superstructure above the web. [nb: slightly shortened and simplified] The connected world provides many examples of "Impossible" futures that create a dissonance between existing cultures or belief systems... and the sudden emergence of new facts. The impact cannot be ignored.

"EPIC Files Complaint with FTC about Employment Screening Firm HireVue Today, EPIC filed a complaint with the FTC alleging that recruiting company HireVue has committed unfair and deceptive practices in violation of the FTC Act. EPIC charged that HireVue falsely denies it uses facial recognition. EPIC also said the company failed to comply with baseline standards for AI decision-making, such as the OECD AI Principles and the Universal Guidelines for AI. The company purports to evaluate a job applicant's qualifications based upon their appearance by means of an opaque, proprietary algorithm. EPIC has brought many similar consumer privacy complaints to the FTC, including a complaint on Facebook's facial recognition practices that contributed to the FTC's 2019 settlement with Facebook. Last year EPIC also asked the FTC to investigate the Universal Tennis Rating system, a secret technique for scoring high school athletes"

"After the first read-through of the white-paper, I noticed in the section "the-libra-currency-and-reserve" and others parts of the white paper that Libra doesn't respect some of the basics of an Open (Libre) and Free Monetary System."

"acebook has finally revealed the details of its cryptocurrency, Libra, which will let you buy things or send money to people with nearly zero fees. You'll pseudonymously buy or cash out your Libra online or at local exchange points like grocery stores, and spend it using interoperable third-party wallet apps or Facebook's own Calibra wallet that will be built into WhatsApp, Messenger and its own app. Today Facebook released its white paper explaining Libra and its testnet for working out the kinks of its blockchain system before a public launch in the first half of 2020."

"Le troisième monstre qu'on attaque, c'est Apple. Il est bien différent de ses deux frères déjà traités ici (Google et Facebook), car il ne centre pas ses profits sur l'exploitation de nos données personnelles. Ce géant-là est avant tout un géant de la communication, il sait donc bien se donner une image d'élève modèle alors qu'il n'est pas irréprochable... ni inattaquable !"

Le Monde | * Mis à jour le | Par Bertrand Le Gendre Les blogs et les plates-formes de partage comme Facebook encouragent en permanence ce dévoilement du moi. Jacques Perriault (université Paris Ouest - Nanterre) parle à leur sujet d'"exhibitionnisme en ligne". De "double numérique".

Voici une tranche de vie sur un réseau social en accéléré.

Voici un petit clip sur la révolution constituée par les réseaux sociaux.

Septembre 2013. Un bijoutier niçois tue son agresseur et reçoit, en cinq jours, plus d'un million de soutiens sur Facebook. Massif, ce mouvement numérique a laissé l'appareil d'Etat « comme une poule avec un couteau », avoue aujourd'hui un membre d'un cabinet ministériel. « Devant ces nouveaux usages en ligne, ajoute-t-il, nous avons du mal à formuler des réponses. » Qu'il y ait eu ou non manipulation des chiffres, cette mobilisation hors norme est intéressante, quand on sait qu'un rassemblement en soutien au bijoutier, organisé à Nice le 16 septembre, n'a pas réuni plus de 1 000 personnes. « On a toujours relié manifestation physique et soutien affectif, observe le PDG d'Ipsos, Jean-Marc Lech. Or le numérique entraîne une révolution de l'appréhension sociologique. »

"Top Tips for a Successful Crowdfunding Campaign Plan Ahead Crowdfunding is in no way the quick or 'easy option' and requires months of strategic planning before you launch. Talk to people about your idea, run focus groups (or set up a Facebook group online), and build an engaged and excited community in advance, so you can hit the ground running when your campaign launches. Getting your video pitch right is crucial, so make it professional, with good visuals and audio."

"En fait, Dave est un imposteur ou plutôt un acteur. Ses informations? Il les reçoit via une oreillette. Ses souffleurs sont des pirates encagoulés dissimulés derrière des tentures de circonstance et qui parcourent sans répit le Web à la recherche d'informations sur les visiteurs qui font la file pour passer devant le médium.
