&lt;p&gt;This article provides good examples of how the efficacy and efficiency of a given technology is often less important than deeper questions of reliance and roles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Caring about privacy ought to be common sense. It&amp;rsquo;s difficult to push back, but that doesn&amp;rsquo;t mean those of us who do are crazy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is a fascinating article on prepper communities on reddit. Great example of the importance of a gender lens.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lots of important reminders in here. I also feel ashamed that I have not protested my country&amp;rsquo;s wars in the way these Russians are doing so now.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Interesting article. I’m particularly interested in the idea of focusing on algorithms rather than content.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Great read on what’s become perhaps the most defensible platform on the social web (though Wikipedia certainly still has its problems).&lt;/p&gt;
