J’aimerai comprendre ce qu’il y a derrière ce laius.

Donc des jeunes filles pauvres travailleraient sur des réseaux sociaux pour gagner du temps complémentaire pour envoyer des SMS. Et cela donnerait une monnaie crytographique soutenue par la Gates Foundation et l’UNICEF... et accentuerait la centralité des entreprises de télécommunication dans la vie des gens les plus pauvres au nom de la solidarité.

Le bavardage des crypto-monnaies est de la poudre aux yeux pour justifier une nouvelle forme de travail, ce que Yann Moulier appelait le « travail des abeilles ».

Au fait, s’est-on un jour posé la question du coût écologique de la création des crypto-monnaies ? Plus ça va, plus il faut « miner » profond, donc faire tourner des machines.

En fait, nous assistons à la victoire du discours cyberlibertarien (contre l’Etat et sa monnaie) et à l’opposé d’une logique de monnaies solidaires et d’un commun des échanges via des monnaies équitables. Mais ils ont monopolisé le discours en s’appuyant sur la magie cryptographique... et acquis ainsi la complicité ou le silence des informaticiens qui s’intéressent à la méthode en oubliant les individus qui doivent servir ces nouvelles monnaies.

Quand l’homme le plus riche de la planète se penche sur le sort des jeunes filles pauvres en lui offrant un téléphone mobile, je ne sais pas pourquoi, mais j’ai une mauvaise impression. Je dois lire trop de polars suédois.
