The future of the tech industry is in infrastructure not data. This means that those who control the infrastructure of Internet—and other key infrastructural technologies like cloud computing and chips—control the bounds of public speech, economic production, social cohesion, and politics, making infrastructure a core political terrain in the networked age. This afternoon we bring together three expert panelists to discuss this topic through their contributions to a recently published book, called Eaten by the Internet. Yung Au (current OII Dphil), Dr Corinne Cath (OII DPhil alumni), and Dr Ashwin Mathew (KCL) will take on thorny topics from Amazon’s dreams of a space Internet to the political economy of the cloud. The discussion with the book’s authors and editor, led by Dr Luc Rocher, will make Internet infrastructure visible as a key force of political power and urge us to ask how can we ensure the tech’s infrastructure will sustain us, rather than consume us?
