"Neurotech: Existential Hope Scenarios - Anders Sandberg, Mary Lou Jepsen, Zarinah Agnew, Dan Barcay"
Pseudo "we are SO progressive, rational & interesting" type of ideas - but essentially regressive, boring bullshit. Mindless techno-chatter from a highly none-diverse, privileged group of people, clearly driven by personal angst - not even noticing who's PR agent they have become. An excellent example how the "Avantgarde" of Western techno-culture is end-to-end bankrupt now - Jacques Ellul & Lewis Mumford are laughing from their graves. The panellists should go and work on a farm or birth clinic for a few years.

"Die smarten Open-Source-Akteure sind gerade wegen ihrer Kapazität der technisch hochentwickelten zielorientierten algorithmisierten Technopraxis sehr ernstzunehmende Kontrahenten* ihrer „systemkonformen“ Zwillingsbrüder und -schwestern in Softwareunternehmen und Überwachungsbehörden. Gerade aufgrund ihrer Fähigkeit des Hackens von Codes des kapitalistischen Establishments, also eben weil sie die Sprache ihres Zwillings verstehen, können sie dessen Spiele stören, umleiten, parasitieren, reversieren, mit eigenen Regeln weiterspielen oder auch leaken."
