What I Read or Listened to This Week

Here is some non-basketball content I read or listened to this week that I found interesting:

• Understanding the Threat of “Surveillance Capitalism”

• super social safety nets - “It’s a question of what people have trouble paying out of pocket for, and what the role of the state is. They should be part of a reality check when decision-makers set their agendas and draft their policies, and treated with just as much import as public opinion polling on what people THINK they want. Like, if the Canadian government truly gets serious about pharmacare, a key indicator of the success of such a policy expansion would be a subsequent decline in the number of fundraisers related to drugs.”

• The “Essential Worker” Racket - How ‘COVID Hero’ Discourse Is Used To Discipline Labor

• It’s All Rigged

• The Off Court Podcast: Hockey and National Identit‪y

• Because Internet
