pickGood book about how paradise is threatened with being paved over (#Nonfiction2023 #BigYellowTaxi) by the high-tech “smart city” phenomenon. Better communication and support networks are counteracted with threats of “surveillance creep” and state and police oppression. Lornic is an excellent Toronto journalist who looks at what has happened here with a project that failed due to community backlash, but also global changes.
