I don’t think people realize what keeping the internet running and producing most tech they use entails like. Physically, labor-wise, energy-wise.

[tsscat]

Purposefully included some older articles here so people can see how baked in this is:

Labor Conditions of Content Moderators (2021)

Inside AOL's "Cyber-Sweatshop" (1999)

Digital Labor and Imperialism (2016)

Amazon Mechanical Turk: The Digital Sweatshop (2012)

Gig Economy, Algorithmic Control, and Migrant Labor (2022)

The Rise of Cyber-Coolies (2003)

Ecological Impact of Computation and the Cloud (2022)

The Environmental Sustainability of Digital Content Consumption (2024)

Carbon Footprint of the Internet (2010)

I think a lot of times I see people talk about this stuff in relation to AI. It's right to talk about it, but I hate when people act like AI is the only tech that has these problems. What you see with AI now is a reflection of the broader tech and internet industry that has grown for the past 20-30 years.

Listen, you can take away anything you want from this but just as a suggestion given a lot of responses I’ve seen here.

Conclusions from this which are not very productive: the Internet overall is bad and we should destroy it.

Conclusions that are perhaps more productive: Currently the Internet, which many lives depend on, takes up a lot of resources, has a climate impact, and runs on exploited labor. We need to find out how we can avoid this (it’s certainly possible), and work together to achieve this.

I know that Blazer saving Robert in the bar and admitting to tracking his phone comes off in the scene like quirky girl crush behavior but idgaf I stan my girl if I saw this bitch Robert's SLEEPING LAWNCHAIR at his housewarming party id be tracking his ass too. She's regularly finding his stupid ass in fights and getting his ass kicked over NOTHING. She left him alone in a bar full of supposedly good people and he got kicked out in less than FIVE MINUTES. He is REGULARLY in various states of EXPLODED. And all of that was BEFORE he supposedly lost the key to his LIFE PURPOSE MECH to his MORTAL ENEMY and was last seen SOBBING IN A HOSPITAL ROOM. ETHICS BE DAMNED not watching his GPS at that point is a moral failing. My brother in Christ you have a day job Robert hire a fucking therapist 😭😭😭

I will NOT be active on my own I tried and failed so many times. The only reason im doing ok now is because I live in a walkable city and I have no choice but to walk for groceries or DIE. I need someone to go do you wanna go outside?? Do you wanna go for a WALK?!?! The same tone they would to a yorkshier terrier and go with me or I CAN and WILL switch between bed and couch until I fall asleep.

Iris: Peri you've been acting strange what exactly did you get up to while you were on your last cargo haul?

Perihelion: I do not understand what you are referring to. My behavior has not changed.

Iris: oh yeah? Then why did you tell dad that the comm call we just had with that corporate was "just like one of those "oh shit" moments from the media"?

Perihelion:

Iris: AND that the time Martyn's shirt ripped but only on the chest that it was "just like episode 24 of World Hoppers"??

Perihelion:

Iris: AND when Tarik said he didn't like Farland you told him media wasn't SUPPOSE to be realistic and that wanting it to be realistic made him "an individual open to suggestion"

Perihelion:
