But now I'm home, in my hammock, with all the laundry done - just in time to leave again. I'm about to head back to my hometown of #Toronto for a book launch. #TheInternetCon, my latest nonfiction (from #VersoBooks) came out last week, and I'll be appearing at #AnotherStory books on Tuesday:

In my next book, *The Internet Con: How to Seize the Means of Computation* (#VersoBooks, Sept 5), I set out a program fro disenshittifying the internet:

The book is up for pre-order on #Kickstarter now, along with an independent, DRM-free audiobooks (DRM-free media is the content-layer equivalent of containerized services - you can move them into or out of any app you want):

So how do we get there? Well, that's another matter. In my next book, *The Internet Con: How to Seize the Means of Computation* (#VersoBooks, Sept 5), I lay out a detailed program, describing which policies will disenshittify the internet, and how to get those policies:

I've written a book laying out a shovel-ready plan to give tech back to its users through #interoperability, explaining how to make new regulations (and reform old ones), what they should say, how to enforce them, and how to detect and stop cheating. It's called "The Internet Con: How To Seize the Means of Computation" and it's coming from #VersoBooks this September:

I bought this ebook and 8 others at the big Verso Books new-store-launch sale. Total for all was under $14!

At least 30% off paper books, 80% off ebooks. DRM free, went straight into Calibre and then my eink reader. If what they publish floats your boat, this is a great time to buy a pile of their stuff.

@zakiuem @jlendino Whereas there are other means to prevent people from just copying content.

#ORbooks & #VersoBooks literally #watermark their #DRMfree #eBooks [#PDF & #ePub] with the name of the buyer and their eMail adress and I think that's a good balance between "don't copy my stuff" and "enjoy it on every device you have" that'll make them accessible in 25+ or even 100+ years...

Parei de ler aqui. Então o ebook é mesmo meu, só que não é.
