There's the world wide web - the internet we all know that connects us via news, email, forums, shopping, and social media. Then there's the dark web - the parallel internet accessed by only a select few. Eileen Ormsby has spent the past five years exploring every corner of the dark web. She has shopped on darknet markets, contributed to forums, waited in red rooms, and been threatened by hitmen on murder-for-hire sites.

Ilustra sobre el contenido de la Dark Web
Revisado: 07-12-24
La autora comenta sobre el contenido de la Dark Web en 3 niveles, dark, darker y darkest y ejemplifica sobre un caso puntual de cada nivel. El nivel mas oscuro de todos realmente me impactó por su descripción de cosas realmente horrendas.

In A Brief History of Black Holes, University of Oxford astrophysicist Dr Becky Smethurst charts the scientific breakthroughs that have uncovered the weird and wonderful world of black holes, from Hawking radiation to the iconic first photographs of a black hole in 2019.

This biography describes the intellectual and political milieus that helped shape Noam Chomsky, a pivotal figure in contemporary linguistics, politics, cognitive psychology, and philosophy. It also presents an engaging political history of the last several decades, including such events as the Spanish Civil War, the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the march on the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War.

La narración es mala, con el autor haciendo largas pausas cada tanto. El libro en si no dice mucho que un lector de Noam Chomsky no sepa o no pueda encontrar fácilmente,

Cypherpunks are activists who advocate the widespread use of strong cryptography (writing in code) as a route to progressive change. Julian Assange, the editor-in-chief of and visionary behind WikiLeaks, has been a leading voice in the cypherpunk movement since its inception in the 1980s. Now, Assange brings together a small group of cutting-edge thinkers and activists from the front line of the battle for cyber-space to discuss whether electronic communications will emancipate or enslave us.

no es un audiolibro si no una conversación

más que un audiolibro es una transcripción de una conversación entre varios activistas, el mensaje está bien, pero prefiero cualquier otro libro sobre el tema.

Thurston Moore moved to Manhattan’s East Village in 1978 with a yearning for music. He wanted to be immersed in downtown New York’s sights and sounds—the feral energy of its nightclubs, the angular roar of its bands, the magnetic personalities within its orbit. But more than anything, he wanted to make music—to create indelible sounds that would move, provoke, and inspire. His dream came to life in 1981 with the formation of Sonic Youth, a band Moore cofounded with Kim Gordon and Lee Ranaldo.

Maps have a mysterious hold over us. Whether ancient, crumbling parchments or generated by Google, maps tell us things we want to know, not only about our current location or where we are going but about the world in general. And yet, when it comes to geo-politics, much of what we are told is generated by analysts and other experts who have neglected to refer to a map of the place in question.

Good book for starters
Revisado: 03-31-24
This is a very good book if you take it for what it is, a superficial introduction to the subject, if you like me know very litlle about how geography shapes foreign policy then you will benefit of the contents of the book, however the information about international conflicts is simplified and should not be taken as a complete source of truth.

The book is fine, but the most interesting parts are at the beginning, in the second half it starts to get boring. If you have read "Weapons of Math Destruction" AND seen the documentary, then this book has pretty much the same ideas.

Entrevistas a personas muy diversas
Revisado: 02-14-24
Algunos invitados son muy interesantes, otros no tanto. Me gusta mucho el formato de entrevistas íntimas con gente interesante, pero el capítulo depende mucho de quien sea el entrevistado.
