In december 2025, the author and activist Cory Doctorow @pluralistic@mamot.fr did a speech at the 39C3 called "post-American, enshittification-resistant internet"

He talks about AI, internet enshitification, anti-circumvention law. guilotine few technofascists...but he also talks about alliance and hope ! ✊

    Glad you enjoyed it :)

    There are plenty cool talks from the chaos communication congress event, the hacker event. I put the link at the end of my post.

    For example this one is crazy :

    https://media.ccc.de/v/39c3-pwn2roll-who-needs-a-599-remote-when-you-have-wheelchair-py

    A 595€ wheelchair remote that sends a handful of Bluetooth commands. A 99.99€ app feature that does exactly what the 595€ hardware does. A speed upgrade from 6 to 8.5 km/h locked behind a 99.99€ paywall - because apparently catching the bus is a premium feature.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of DRM in assistive devices, where already expensive basic mobility costs extra and comes with in-app purchases! And because hackers gonna hack, this just could not be left alone.
