Just about any social need is now met with an opportunity to "connect" through digital means. But this convenience is not free-it is purchased with vast amounts of personal data transferred through shadowy backchannels to corporations using it to generate profit. The Costs of Connection uncovers this process, this "data colonialism," and its designs for controlling our lives-our ways of knowing; our means of production; our political participation. Colonialism might seem like a thing of the past, but this book shows that the historic appropriation of land, bodies, and natural resources is mirrored today in this new era of pervasive datafication. Apps, platforms, and smart objects capture and translate our lives into data, and then extract information that is fed into capitalist enterprises and sold back to us. The authors argue that this development foreshadows the creation of a new social order emerging globally-and it must be challenged. Confronting the alarming degree of surveillance already tolerated, they offer a stirring call to decolonize the internet and emancipate our desire for connection

Genre: Faglitteratur
Sammendrag: Just about any social need is now met with an opportunity to 'connect' digitally. But this convenience is not free— it is purchased with vast amounts of personal data transferred through shadowy back channels to corporations using it to generate profit. The Costs of Connection uncovers this process, called 'data colonialism', and its designs for controlling our lives—our ways of knowing, our means of production, our political participation. This book provides by far the most detailed and historically rich exploration to date of the colonial dimensions of what is happening with data and capitalism, pushing current debates in a radical new direction and offering a genuinely global perspective on today's struggles for human freedom.

Spørgsmål og svar
Er varen ny?
Orderly sælger gode varer fra folk, som ikke selv har tid, lyst eller mulighed for at gøre det. Vores varer er derfor typisk brugte og dermed billigere end nyt. Og så er de bedre for miljøet.
Hvorfor købe brugte bøger på Orderly?
Du får den højeste sikkerhed i handelen. Vi har alle varer på lager, så risikoen for falske annoncer er nul. Vi giver dig også 14 dages fortrydelsesret og dermed markedets bedste sikkerhed ved køb af brugte varer.
Er billederne af den faktiske vare?
Ja. Alle billeder på produktsiden viser den konkrete vare vi har til salg. Ikke et generisk produktfoto. Du kan derfor zoome ind på billederne og se eventuelle brugsspor før køb.
Hvordan vurderer I standen?
Vi vurderer varen ud fra synligt slid og det samlede indtryk. Vi tester ikke elektronik eller tæller brikkerne i et puslespil inden salg. Vi formidler salget mellem køber og sælger. Men er der problemer med en vare, finder vi altid en løsning - med eller uden sælger.
Jeg glemte en ting. Kan jeg tilføje til min ordre?
Ja, det kan du sagtens - helt indtil vi starter pakningen af din ordre. Du laver bare en ny ordre og vælger den eksisterende ordre som levering (hvor du normalt vælger GLS eller afhentning). I sjældne tilfælde kan det dog forlænge leveringstiden med en dag.
