Hotel Brasilia Palace
Arch. Oscar Niemeyer, 1958
It opened alongside the nearby presidential residence and soon became a social hub for politicians and celebrities, hosting figures such as Queen Elizabeth II and Che Guevara. The hotel is known for its floating modernist style. A 1978 fire forced its closure for over twenty years before a major restoration led to its reopening in 2006.

In Yesterday's IO Keynote Google declared war on the remnants of the Web.
While they packaged it as a lot of "AI" talk what their whole approach of decontextualizing information, of taking away links to sources and instead producing some LLM generated response means is that they want to establish a new abstraction layer on the web. Where Zuckerberg with his Metaverse failed Google is starting the next attack: Your website, your work no longer matters.
Well it matters as (unpaid) raw material for their synthetic text extruders but not as cultural artifact you can share with others.
This is a literal revolution but one against the participatory web, against us: The goal is to take away the web and guide people into Google's abstraction on top of it. An abstraction they control and moderate. It's about monopolizing access to information.
If you care about the web, about people's ability to participate in it as more than mere passive consumers, this needs to be taken seriously. De-Googlifying your mental apparatus becomes more urgent today. Find other search engines, don't use their browser. Or wake up in a slopified AOL kind of environment.

@lritter@gamedev.place @tante@nettime.org Investors shit on the biggest stack. Always.
And as Kim Stanley Robinson teaches us in "New York *2140*", we are those ones in power. And willingly don't use it.
The easiest way to fuck investors is to simply stop consuming the invested good. But everyone. And for at least 4 weeks. If Corporations understand that customers withdraw from their service for more than Months - they panic. Because the have running costs.
But we silly monks simply don't utilize our power.
A consumption strike would change the world. But we just don't do it. Instead of pointing to investors and everyone else, we should point to ourselves. We should ask ourselves why we still use their services so that they make money.
Just to be clear here: WE are paying them.
So, for example, instead of going to a web page and ordering your take-out, your agentic AI will (for a fee) put in your order for what you want on your behalf. Then it will pass money (for a fee) from your account to the restaurant. Or put a book on hold at your library (for a fee) or schedule your furnace maintenance (for a fee) etc.

What the fuck is even going on with their branding in that header image? I swear, branding has gotten significantly worse in the last 2 years. It was boring before, but now it is just all over the place.
@1024Bytes Changing to a different search engine does not fix our collective issue. At best it delays it for you individually.
This is something Google started a couple years ago even before the AI summary crap and de-contextualising. Specialised websites all over the web have simply vanished* as the people maintaining them did not see any use in that when the sites became effectively invisible.
Unfortunately other search engines do the same.

@codinghorror why not all of them? ;)
This is not a "just google is bad" kind of thing. It's just that the one company that structures most people's access to the web decided to change the contract unilaterally. I think that that specific thing needs highlighting while also burning Meta and X and all them to the ground. We can contain multitudes (of ways of defending access to information, expression and connection)
Take a look at this - it is heartening 🤗

Focus fire, people. Most harmful, least accountable tech companies:
- NSO Group
- Clearview AI
- Meta
- Amazon
- Alphabet / Google
- X (the nazi bar)
- Palantir
- VK
- Bytedance / TikTok
- Apple
- Microsoft
Once we've killed off Meta, or anything above it, feel free to proceed with the rest of the list. But focus your fire, and be effective.

Do you have something that is Ark sized maybe..?
Also, I use Mojeek 😀
I remember the slogan ”organize the world's information and make it accessible,” and still appears on their website. To us non-galaxy-brained folks, the AI push fails on both counts: it DISorganizes info into slop and makes it INaccessible to anyone not able or willing to pay.
No doubt they'd spin it as consistent, but I think of someone being forced to drink from a firehose and being told they ‘have access to to the world's water’: youtube.com/watch?v=pgPgsvxxxK…

Information and data are the new means of production, and Google and many other Big Tech companies have spent decades building monopolies to act as the paid gatekeeper.
Buy a set of hard copy maps and encyclopaedias before they no longer exist.
I think that this needs to be more widely known and it poses the question: how can you communicate this clearly to lay-people.
Here we are in a kind of echo-chamber with a techie bias. Many valid points are raised about subjects with broad impact, but I realise that a lot of the language and concepts are difficult if you are not experienced in the topic.
Note that this is not a plea to dumb down. If the message is so important, can we amplify it and spread it using language which a non-tech person would get without corrupting the meaning?
This applies to using the fediverse as well - how can it be communicated and made more accessible?
@tanavit
website idea - can handle this.
Non-techie (that's me) and I'm not trying to be snarky - what is a gopher protocol...? - where would I even start?
Gopher was the ancestor of WWW.
Having a search functionnality, I used it in ancient times to look for documents on Internet.
The main advantage is that it is distributed.
@tanavit @tribactam Wrote about this recently. Internet has lots of "old tracks" that can be repurposed. XMPP, IRC, Gopher. Don't know if it's possible to make these popular again, but people still use and build on these protocols.

At Mojeek we like to do things differently, that's why we're building a search engine that respects your privacy whilst providing unique and unbiased results.www.mojeek.com
those in control of information control power and given our current societal situation this not just bad for the web, it will affect all facets of life.
I just reread Animal Farm and the parallels are too close for comfort.
Time to sell off Google Stock
capitalism is founded on taking something that is free and readily available and charging people for it.
I've been warning people for years about this. no one seemed to listen. Their "ads" are pay to play and now with AI adoption it is even more so. They own the browsers you use and the phones you use them on. Only thing they didn't control was the content, now they own that too.
@PetterOfCats Therein, perhaps, is the greater evil: taking broader value spaces for oneself, then giving narrower back.
This is the essence of #AbuseOfPower, and the roots of Oppresso De Liber, Vitruvian Man depicting symmetrical value distribution, Eastern philosophies proclaiming centered Chakra emmenating similar distribution, etc..
It's Evolutionary Scale, and fail it too long and often, resutls in utter collapse.
the people I need to hear / read this possibly don't read English good enough for me to serve this to them.
And my translation powers are not good enough for your output.
Could you possibly write this in German?
We do know we are in for some really amazing horror stories. The difference is you can’t share a link anymore.
That’s the craziest shit.
How do you share a link? you can’t
Currently I use Startpage, but AFAIK that's essentially just an anonymised version of Google - and they've recently been pushing their own ai slop service as well. Sometimes I use DuckDuckGos no AI search - but I hear theyre in Googles pockets nowadays, too.
Does anyone have a decent, non-AI sloppified, non-Google alternative they could reccomend?
The original web is still out there, waiting for us 😀 fediring.net comes to mind 😀
Everyone should get their own website and/or domain and move away from the big behemoths of Google, Amazon, Facebook etc, or at least spend part of their time away from them 😀
Decentralized Search Engine by MPAQ like the Fediverse AKA ActivityPub AKA Mastodon and XMPP. TidySearch has indexed 461 websites.search.mpaq.org
as big tech (meta, alphabet, apple and ms) has achieved total market capture of the internet; it has become theirs to craft as they wish. the only entity of any power pushing back is the EU- and i have to wonder how long that will last.
Our choices have become: Participate, segregate, or leave for irl.
The social net is already sus because of ai. W/o irl validation, you can never really be 100% about *what* you are communicating with online. Human? Maybe? probably? I hope so? 😬
100% ok with no chrome browser ever connecting to my website. If it becomes irrelevant I can block it entirely. I don't use chrome personally, never will again, don't use their search either. And I could (and will) take that farther if need be.
It turns out we don't need them.
This reminds me of the quote:
"I think we can learn 2 things from this: 1) Don't take everything you read on the internet at face value & 2) Google takes everything it reads on the internet at face value."

i think I already am 100 % degoogled
but I know it's a process done in baby steps bit by bit and not done easily
this is a very real threat
it's also super hostile
when google scrapes your website and monitizes your data but does not pay you or send you traffic for ads: why should anyone allow them to scrape your website?
