Engaños digitales, víctimas reales: Historias de estafas por internet y hackeos en la Argentina
by Sebastián DavidovskyA partir de nueve casos reales ocurridos en la Argentina, Sebastián Davidovsky, periodista especializado en tecnología, explica delitos como grooming, hackeo, phishing y ransomware. Cada caso sirve para conocer cómo operan los criminales, cómo funcionan las estafas y cómo estar prevenidos para evitarlas. Usamos mail, apps, WhatsApp, home banking, archivamos, compramos, subimos fotos. Y no percibimos que, del otro lado, alguien acecha todos nuestros datos y la intimidad. A partir de nueve casos argentinos, Sebastián Davidovsky explica cómo operan los criminales a través del grooming, phishing, ransomware y otros delitos a los que todos estamos expuestos. Dice María O'Donnell que "a los que nos acercamos a la tecnología con ingenuidad, pero agradecidos por las oportunidades que ofrece, este libro resulta tan ameno como inquietante. No abruma con datos ni pretende convertirnos al nerdismo, pero con hechos reales -que reconstruye con precisión- alerta sobre riesgos poco evidentes. Las historias iluminan sobre qué pasa cuando las cosas funcionan mal en una red a la que entregamos más información de lo prudente. Sebastián nos saca de la zona de comodidad, porque estamos acostumbrados a disfrutar de las soluciones, pero no nos ponemos a pensar en qué nos quitan". Para Tomás Balmaceda, "por su volumen e impacto, es posible que estos nuevos delitos estén a punto de tenernos como víctimas (si no es que ya nos pasó). Con olfato para las grandes historias, rigor investigativo y un ritmo que no descansa, en este libro hay casos de la Argentina que nos obligan a repensar nuestra conducta digital. Además de entretener y crear conciencia, Sebastián brinda consejos para evitar ser víctimas de estos nuevos criminales, que no usan máscaras ni llevan ganzúas, sino que se esconden detrás de un usuario y una pantalla".
Big data & Política: De los relatos a los datos. Persuadir en la era de las redes sociales
by Luciano GalupEl primer libro de uno de los analistas de marketing y consultoría con mayor proyección de los últimos años; un análisis pormenorizado de cómo la información se ha convertido en uno de los bienes más valiosos y las redes sociales en el medio esencial para la comunicación política en lo que va del siglo XXI. Vivimos en la era de los datos. Casi toda la actividad humana deja una huella digital que es almacenable y analizable. Los datos y las redes sociales se han convertido en una herramienta clave para la comunicación de nuestras sociedades y también para la orientación del debate público. Una parte cada vez más importante de los recursos de campañas políticas y de gobierno se destinan a las estrategias de análisis de datos y de comunicación digital. También crece el interés de los ciudadanos por el uso de los datos y de las redes sociales como mecanismos de participación y de seducción de voluntades. Casos como el de Cambridge Analytica y Facebook o la popularización de términos como "postverdad" o "noticias falsas" (fake news) amplificaron la difusión y el interés en las estrategias de comunicación política orientadas a redes sociales y la manipulación de información de los usuarios. Luciano Galup, uno de los mayores expertos argentinos en comunicación digital, analiza las transformaciones que estos medios revolucionarios entrañan para la política y para nuestra vida diaria. Explora cómo nos estamos adaptando a un mundo que produce cantidades desproporcionadas de información a velocidades irrefrenables. Estudia cómo se construye un candidato electoral en base a los datos sobre los votantes, en un contexto de fragmentación y microculturas, en el que un político ya no sólo debe saber hablar sino aprender a escuchar; y, a su vez, cómo se garantiza una participación amplia, transparente y genuina de la ciudadanía en el debate público. Y se pregunta, sobre todo, cómo comunicarse más y mejor para devolverle prestigio y credibilidad a la política y a la información, de cara a un mundo nuevo lleno de incertidumbres y grandes posibilidades.
Tecnoceno: Algoritmos, biohackers y nuevas formas de vida
by Flavia CostaDescripción de esta era en la que, mediante la puesta en marcha de tecnologías de alta complejidad y altísimo riesgo, dejamos huellas en el mundo que exponen no solo a las poblaciones de hoy, sino a las generaciones futuras, de nuestra especie y de otras especies, en los próximos milenios. Chernóbil, la crisis financiera de 2008, los incendios en el Amazonas o la pandemia de coronavirus no son eventos aislados. Son "accidentes normales", síntomas del crecimiento y la destrucción acelerados, que, en menos de setenta años, transformaron nuestra vida y la del planeta para siempre. En Tecnoceno Flavia Costa delinea con sutileza la trama cultural y política de este mundoambiente alucinatorio cuya virtualidad se sostiene en una red material hecha de cables, satélites y edificios, por donde desfilan bioartistas, ciencia forense, organizaciones de derechos humanos, sistemas de vigilancia y empresarios transhumanistas. Y advierte sobre el papel clave que cumplen hoy las huellas: las biométricas, las comportamentales y las que dejamos en el suelo, la atmósfera y los océanos. Unas porque su capitalización ha desatado una feroz batalla geopolítica. Otras porque de ellas depende el futuro de la Tierra. «Los "accidentes normales" no son producto de una guerra, una negligencia o un sabotaje, sino que son inseparables de la productividad del sistema, de su desarrollo, de su incremento y de las contingencias que siempre se abren cuando se dispara una acción tecnológica hipercompleja hacia el futuro.» «Estamos ante una nueva cultura del yo que se exhibe ante los demás; un sujeto que, así como asume la individualidad somática, se reconoce también como emisor continuo de señales, como obra viviente, que se experimenta, se expresa, se juzga y actúa sobre sí, en parte, en el lenguaje del espectáculo. Y que se entrena como creador de su propia audiencia.»
Ruidos en la web: Cómo se informan los adolescentes en la era digital
by Roxana MorduchowiczEste es un libro sobre los adolescentes. También sobre las tecnologías. Y sobre ciudadanía y política. Desde estos cuatro ejes y analiza las serias dificultades que tienen los jóvenes para buscar, procesar, seleccionar, evaluar y utilizar el enorme caudal de información que circula hoy en internet. Adolescencia, tecnología, educación y cultura ciudadana: sobre estos cuatro ejes se asienta Ruidos en la web para explorar un interrogante crucial: cómo se informan los jóvenes en un universo de saberes sin límites. La pregunta es asediada a partir de múltiples enfoques: desde la forma en que los chicos utilizan internet para las tareas escolares, los nuevos hábitos propios de esta era tecnológica, su impacto en el espacio doméstico, el cambio en el concepto de autoridad cuando se trata de acudir a una fuente de información, la dificultad para distinguir entre contenidos falsos y genuinos. Y de esta problemática se desprende la preocupación por el modo en que se está formando la futura dirigencia y sus consecuencias sobre la democracia. Con un estilo ameno que no va en desmedro del rigor académico, Roxana Morduchowicz, especialista en cultura juvenil y en la relación de los chicos con las pantallas e internet, brinda un panorama de la situación, desmitifica postulados poco consistentes, se resiste a los clichés y pone en agenda un tema de interés universal.
Los dueños de internet: Cómo nos dominan los gigantes de la tecnología y qué hacer para cambiarlo
by Natalia ZuazoEste libro propone cambiar la lógica monopólica de internet y adueñarnos de nuestro propio modo de relacionarnos con la tecnología para vivir en un mundo más equitativo. En este preciso instante, la mitad de las personas están conectadas a Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple y Amazon. En los últimos años, las grandes plataformas tecnológicas se convirtieron en las empresas más ricas del planeta sin usar la violencia. Su poder se consolidó gracias a los millones de usuarios como nosotros que les confían su atención y sus datos a través de teléfonos móviles y algoritmos. Hoy internet es un club de cinco grandes monopolios que generan desigualdad. Un puñado de corporaciones domina el mundo como antes lo hicieron las potencias coloniales. ¿Cómo construyó Microsoft un imperio del conocimiento? ¿Cómo predice Google nuestros movimientos? ¿Cómo cimentó Facebook su poderío informativo? ¿Cómo maneja Uber el mundo de transporte? Pero sobre todo, ¿cómo podemos revertir esta situación? En este libro, la periodista especializada en tecnopolítica Natalia Zuazo se sumerge en el universo de estas grandes corporaciones para entender sus fines. Y cuenta otras historias donde la tecnología está siendo usada con otra lógica: la de una sociedad más equitativa. "Las grandes plataformas tecnológicas son los monopolios que hoy dominan el mundo. Unos pocos jugadores controlan la actividad en cada sector. Google lidera las búsquedas, la publicidad y el aprendizaje automatizado. Facebook, el mercado de las noticias y la información. Amazon dirige el comercio en gran parte de Occidente mientras avanza en generar y distribuir sus propios productos. Uber no sólo quiere intermediar y ganar dinero con cada viaje, sino que busca convertirse en la empresa que transporte los bienes del futuro, incluso sin necesidad de conductores. Con remera y un ejército de relacionistas públicos que difunden anuncios a favor de los más necesitados, hoy el Club de los Cinco ha conquistado el mundo como antes lo hicieron las grandes potencias. La diferencia es que en vez de construir palacios y grandes murallas, se instalan en oficinas abiertas y llenas de luz en Silicon Valley. Y en lugar de evangelizar con sacerdotes y predicadores, se nutren del capitalismo del like y de cada dato que cedemos de nuestra vida. Cien años después, vivimos un nuevo colonialismo."
Chicas en Tecnología®: Reiniciando el sistema
by Mariana Varela Carolina Hadad Sofía ContrerasLa tecnología tiene un papel determinante en lo cotidiano: el trabajo, la educación y la vida social. Pero es un área desigual para las mujeres. Este libro da cuenta de la brecha de género en tecnología y de la invisibilización de las pioneras y las líderes, pero es también una invitación a reiniciar el sistema, a que las mujeres consideren a la tecnología como una aliada para mejorar el mundo. La tecnología tiene un papel determinante en lo cotidiano: el trabajo, la educación y la vida social. Pero es un área profundamente desigual para las mujeres. La disparidad comienza en la infancia -a las niñas les regalan una cocinita y a los niños, videojuegos- y continúa durante la escolarización, la formación profesional, la capacitación, en el ambiente laboral o cuando deciden emprender. Las mujeres chocan constantemente con la estigmatización, la mirada estereotipada, la brecha salarial, discriminación y violencia. Cuando en 2015 Sofía Contreras, Carolina Hadad, Melina Masnatta y Mariana Varela crearon la organización Chicas en Tecnología® con el objetivo de achicar la brecha de género en ese campo, el feminismo no tenía la fuerza de hoy en la escena pública, y si bien se ganaron derechos, aún falta mucho. Con datos, fuentes, investigaciones, análisis y la experiencia de las autoras, este libro evidencia las barreras que las mujeres enfrentan en el ambiente tecnológico, pero además propone cambios e ideas en educación, liderazgo, emprendedorismo, mentoreo. Rescata de la invisibilización a las pioneras y demuestra por qué es fundamental que haya cada vez más líderes mujeres y multiplicidad de voces. Chicas en Tecnología® es una invitación a reiniciar el sistema, a que las mujeres consideren a la tecnología como una aliada para mejorar el mundo.
