Who Takes What? Digital Technologies in Platform Capitalism
You think you're in control of your smartphone, but the reality is far more disturbing. This video breaks down the groundbreaking research from the book 'Who Takes What? Digital Technologies in Platform Capitalism,' coordinated by Argentine scholars Susana Morales and Elizabeth Vidal for the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO). We expose the hidden extraction machine inside your pocket: how your data is the new oil, your attention is farmed, and you are the unpaid workforce fueling trillion-dollar tech giants. From the physical toll of video calls and the myth of the cloud to the war on net neutrality and the trap of zero-rating apps, we reveal the five counterintuitive slaps in the face about the tech you touch every day. Discover why you are not the master of your device—you are the raw material. Watch to learn how to stop being a passive user and start reclaiming your digital freedom.
