Technological Sovereignty (P. Riemens)
“Who has not yet realized, after “Snowden” and his revelations, that our dear “cyberspace” is no longer in the hands of its users and, alas, has not been for a long time, but that it has become a high-risk space under heavy surveillance?” (P. Riemens)

The missing sector (Rowe and Bollier)
“One of the signal failures of market culture is the inability to declare what is not for sale. On the whole, as a society we reject the idea that babies, votes, or body parts should be bought and sold like soybeans. But these are aberrations from the general rule that everything is legitimately for sale. One principle of a commons-based society, by contrast, is that certain things are off limits to the market — the air we breathe, the languages we speak, and the genetic information of which our bodies are composed, to name a few.” (Rowe and Bollier)
