   I highly recommend to follow both @Rainer_Rehak and @aral by the way.

   Both were instrumental to my process of becoming aware of the structural issues with digital economy in their own way.

   - Rainers work on the protective scope of data protection is excellent and
   - Arals ideas around the "Universal Declaration of Cyborg Rights" were especially inspiring to my work around "digital integrity" as a part of Art. 8 EU-Charter of Fundamental Rights.

     This radio feature hits the mark so well because it shows what #Mastodon actually accomplishes:

     It is NOT the solution to centralised platform control or commercialisation of data in itself but ...

     ... it "tears a hole in the grey curtain of reaction which has marked the horizons of possibility under capitalist realism" (to quote Mark Fisher).

     It shows that there is an alternative. And that is so much more powerful than actually being the solution already.
