Disinformation game

Many times I think we get too much information, and how well it lives in ignorance. With so much information, it seems that the possibilities we have for humble people to understand the objectives of the different powers and the behaviors associated with them are like never before. But it's not free, because all that information influences the lives we want to live peacefully, and we need to look more critically at the information we receive. In this sense, the not-for-profit organization Tachtical Tech has published an interesting educational material to support our use in the digital environment, directed mainly to journalists, to understand the capacity of the disinformation networks that work in the digital environment to shape our world. Material title: “How to detect online disinformation networks”.

The author of the guide, Nicola Bruno, recommends four steps to pull the thread of misinformation: First: to analyze whether the website disseminates misinformation (shares resources to contrast the data that may exist on the websites that disinform). Second: look at who's behind the web. Third: follow the money (in this case, it proposes to analyze the forms of advertising funding used by the web, for example, by looking at the websites associated with ID advertising). The fourth and final, see how the content of this website is disseminated on social networks, which are the most effective way to access different niches of people in the digital environment, and offer numerous possibilities of diffusion of misinformation.

It really seems to me to be hard work, so that the work that journalists and sometimes the citizens in this maremagnum do not fall into the game of misinformation.

Strikes of glutamate

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.

The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]


The technology
Systems of Life

Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]

Making a mistake

It is the habit of making decisions that will change our lives with the beginning of the new year. We make lists on three points: one, more sports practice; two, seeing old friends more often; three, going back to Iceland, real and metaphorically. As the months go by, we realize... [+]

Benito, alchemist of our emotions

Since Benito Lertxundi, who told us that he will leave the scenes for ever, we have been there for several weeks, and since then many of us have felt orphans in one way or another, with a sense of loss or abandonment, sad. To Iruindarro, at least, we will remain forever honored... [+]

A bunch of knot-nails.

There are three knots that complicate our coexistence in the Basques, and for many years, despite our patience and determination, we are unable to break free from these ties. There are at least three knots of the moment: prisoners, Basque, immigrants.

With the new year we are... [+]

Goodbye, mom

These were my last words when we left, held hand in your deep breathing sleep. Your heart stayed forever without a special, simple, dignified pain. As you want and demand. How we want and respect.

Vulnerable children: institutional violence in our context

Today, the voices of women and children remain within a culture that delegitimizes their voices, silencing their experiences, within a system aimed at minimizing or ignoring their basic rights and needs. A media example of this problem is the case of Juana Rivas, but her story... [+]
