How has technology steered our minds?

What have we become?

While technology delivered infinitely powerful tools to augment our minds, that same technology slowly became ubiquitous, addictive, and inescapable. As we became dependent on it, the companies who depended on selling it to us became dependent on ways to monetize our attention. Our technologies evolved into digital slot machines, pandering to our base emotions, grasping for our attention and refusing to let go.

The very technology which showed such promise to free our minds had evolved into a tool of our enslavement.

It's time to take back our attention.

WARNING: This video does plug an expensive product, but the way it describes the history of our enslavement to our devices is extremely well done.

Edward Snowden speaks about the current state of #surveillance_💬 in 2019.
(24 minutes)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFns39RXPrU

This video was posted October 23, 2019

He describes how difficult it is to tell whether a phone is spying on you. He says the only way to be sure a phone is off is if you can take out the battery, although you can also monitor it with a meter that detects radio waves. He also mentions that he uses faraday cages for his own devices, to physically prevent signals from coming and going.

He goes on to discuss the larger issues of mass surveillance; how "terms of agreement" have been used disingenuously to force us into this situation; how certain legal precedence has disingenuously forced us into this situation by grossly extrapolating certain exceptional legal cases to apply to everyone at all times; and how big data has become such big business that there is a lot of power and influence in motion to try and maintain this era of surveillance.

He has also mentions his recently released book called "Permanent Record" all about how this surveillance stuff all works, and the implications.

He also plugs an article that he wrote with Andrew ‘bunnie’ Huang called "Introspection engine" that goes into a lot of detail about one way to mediate these intrusions by using an always-on meter to detect whether radio radiation is going in or out of a phone. Ideally, the meter could be built into the cover on your phone. That article can be found here: https://www.aneddoticamagazine.com/introspection-engine/ - but it looks like that's just a proposal, taken from the full 16 page booklet that goes more in depth about making it work here: https://assets.pubpub.org/aacpjrja/AgainstTheLaw-CounteringLawfulAbusesofDigitalSurveillance.pdf

A couple builds a tiny home for just $420! They use mostly found materials, and they aren't perfectionists, but the result is quite adorable!

A video called "Why you can't Focus!"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52nqjrCs57s

"So today I'll explain what's holding you back from focusing and what you can do to improve it."

This video has got some solid advice on how to improve your focus and your attention span.

The video description describes it pretty well:
"In today's world, being able to focus is almost like a superpower.
You rarely see anyone who's able to concentrate on a single task for hours.
And the individuals who are able to focus, to nobody's surprise, get so much more done than other people."
"There are many areas where you could benefit from better concentration. Whether it's for school, studying, work or a hobby. If you're able to focus you can get your desired results faster."
"So today I'll explain what's holding you back from focusing and what you can do to improve it."

How mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains | Richard J. Davidson | TEDxSanFrancisco

"Why is it that some people are more vulnerable to life's slings and arrows and others more resilient?" In this eye-opening talk, Richard Davidson discusses how mindfulness can improve well-being and outlines strategies to boost four components of a healthy mind: awareness, connection, insight, and purpose.

Richard Davidson is researching how mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains and what we know about people's brains of individuals showing more resilience than others. Davidson is Wiliam James and Vilas professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as well as founder and director of the Center for Healthy Minds. His research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing, including meditation and related contemplative practices. #Neuroscience_💬 #Wellbeing_💬 #MentalHealth_💬 Richard Davidson is Research Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry and Founder & Director of the Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin-Madison.Davidson’s research is focused on the neural bases of emotion and emotional style and methods to promote human flourishing including meditation and related contemplative practices.
