They once explained to me that the word spam means a very poor quality sausage that was made in the Anglo-Saxon villages of surplus pigs. The word may be known because it has a folder in the email that receives messages you don't want. This term was the first example I met to compare services and practices that are harmful to quality of life in digital environments with the chatter. I've worked a lot with people who are in a digital divide and, broadening the idea of spam, I can say that "malignant digitalisation" is part of their lives: email is filled with ads that can't tell what's important, app notifications compel them to look at all times, advertising invades that they don't know how to close their pop-ups screens... They are linked to a dynamic that affects their attention and forces.
A law was published in 2022: banning unauthorized commercial calls, spam calls. When we heard the news, we all imagined a world in which we would never again face the threat of commercial or fraudulent calls. But that has not been the case, even though the law is there, we citizens have to denounce calls to protect our rights. Aware of this problem, the Spanish Data Protection Agency has launched a complaint questionnaire, but it is the companies that we can report that have already approved a code of conduct, one hundred. What do you do with companies that are not there or that are swindling? The process gets complicated, we often don't know what they are, the only data we have to oppose them is a phone number. The issue is really complex and education is needed to empower vulnerable people, but it would not be wrong for those who fill the mouth of the need for innovation to seek more creative solutions to put limits on “digitalisation scrap”.

There are those who, being a brilliant brain, with definitions of "little detail," are experts in transforming and transforming the same thing, in other words. It was yours and it has been a project in eternum that has been repeated for decades. This was one of the main reasons to... [+]
On 26 December, during an air strike, the Israeli Army killed five Palestinian journalists trying to reach the city. They killed 130 Palestinian journalists. This news has reminded me of a couple of things, the first, the persecution of true journalists in any part of the world,... [+]
In recent months I have had to work in a number of institutes and, at some point, I have had to talk to the students about the possibilities offered by the labour market. The typology of the students is varied and in the same city varies a lot from one neighborhood to another,... [+]
The girl who appears in the center of photography, which can hardly be considered historical, is writing a list of adjectives: I, you, he, we, you, they. Looking down, I couldn't see what his gaze looked like.
Insensitive to the work of the photographer, you, slowly and... [+]
When you work with older people or people with physical and neural diversity, you realize that the idea of competition in our society limits us a lot as a species. That is, our system puts you in value by doing things specifically, and what it doesn't do is incapable of the... [+]

I do not know if you also have the same perception – I recognise this: here I have started to write in a scientific way. I am referring to the natural extension of the word laziness. I hear more and more in the corners of Hego Euskal Herria: Basque, Spanish and, of course,... [+]
Many at Christmas feel more lazy than illusion when we think about meals and family gatherings. But we anticipate that it is not food that makes us feel collectively uncomfortable, but the normativity that defines the traditional family. Moreover, we would dare to say that the... [+]
I have always found the way in Spanish to the carriages that can be found here and there: humiliating. Isn't it a pretty light, white name or doesn't it have any connotation? After all, everything that was going on there had to be humiliated. It is known that for the god of... [+]
The end of the Syrian Arab Republic has caused great surprise at the way in which it has taken place: fast and almost without resistance. However, it is not so strange when we consider that the country was destroyed, impoverished and trodden. Most Syrians have long been... [+]
