Yanis Varoufakis
“Se è corretta la mia ipotesi che il capitale cloud sta prevalendo sul capitale terrestre, risucchiando sempre più rendita cloud dalla catena del valore globale, allora l'Europa è in grossi guai. Perché non è la Cina. Non ha una sola azienda Big Tech che possa competere con quelle della Silicon Valley e i suoi sistemi finanziari sono in tutto e per tutto dipendenti da Wall Street.”
Yanis Varoufakis, Tecnofeudalesimo: Cosa ha ucciso il capitalismo

“Big Tech is desperately afraid of public criticism, of someone taking a public stand.”
Josh Hawley
