Saying no to technology can be a powerful act of design, especially for people with the least power in society.

@jzong explains our research on refusal in a new interview on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology front page.

I'm so proud of Jonathan for accomplishing so much on this important and profoundly-generative line of research from his time as an undergrad into the final year of his PhD.

It's been 21 years and 29 days since Tor Books published my first novel, Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom. In the years since, Tor has published every one of my novels, sending me around the USA and Canada to talk about them. Now, they've teamed up with @humblebundles to sell 18 of my ebooks on a name-your-price basis, with part of the proceeds going to benefit @eff:
