From the subprime to the premium, from California to fascism? - @jmigozzi.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
Extract: Another book on tech, AI, algorithms, and inequalities? Thou shalt be deceived. This is not to say that other works on similar topics neglect theory, but what is at stake for Marion Fourcade and Kieran Healy is not merely an analysis of the inner workings of digital capitalism. Rather, their pro-ject is to document and theorize the social form it engenders. To that end, they engage in deep dia-logue with social theory, extending and elevating their previous scholarship to illuminate howcapitalism, social stratification, and political life are being reshaped by the ‘changing relationship between information technology and power’ (2024, 3) (3), through which ‘classes of people, scores,and prices became closely connected’ (271). The argument unfolds as follows: digital technologiesengineered in California entered our daily lives through the binding logic of a gift to never leave usagain (chapter 1), feeding a large-scale, networked system of ongoing data collection, throughwhich anyone and anything can be measured, ranked and classified (chapter 2). This technological transformation is profoundly social and political, updating existing inequalities and justifying new ones (chapter 3), bringing market structures and outcomes into financialized, individualistic andmonopolistic grounds (chapters 4 and 5), and shifting the political arena: reformatting identities,digital capitalism dismantles and re-assembles the meaning and scope of citizenship at the expenseof public institutions (chapters 6 and 7).

I gave up that idea 25 years ago when my English teacher explained to us that "public schools" were private.
