@resl@mas.to I agree with this sentiment 💯. Tech is so much of the infrastructure of modern life. I believe insisting on tech that works in our best interest is necessary - the status quo hasn't caught up with the problems, harms, and subsequent solutions you've identified - Big tech surveillance capitalism enables and entrenches inequality, authoritarianism, and fascism. I'm also baffled that Indivisible, DSA, DIEM, etc. don't see FOSS/fedi is an obviously aligned expression of egalitarian values these orgs embrace in other aspects of culture and our relationships to each other. Two pieces of writing I appreciate that also express the necessity of reorienting organizing's relationship to technology: https://www.wired.com/story/how-to-organize-safely-in-the-age-of-surveillance/ https://werd.io/theres-no-such-thing-as-neutral-technology/ In solidarity.
