Borders Everywhere by Sanjana Varghese The humanitarian alibi has often been used to inscribe the logic of the security state onto vulnerable populations serving as involuntary test subjects, as when biometric and surveillance technologies are imposed as a means of delivering aid to populations in crisis situations. But these technologies for monitoring, administering, and “controlling” people are themselves largely unregulated and their long-run implications are unknown, even as they are brought from the margins to structure more and more lives. Read more essays on living with technology at reallifemag.com and follow us on Twitter @_reallifemag.

12 - Borders Everywhere by Sanjana Varghese

Look, lots of things have happened that have made the content of this week's episode a bit out of date. This week's episode features Riley, Milo, Hussein, and Alice catching up on the Cummings scandal, the abomination of a tech house DJ collective made up of bankers, and a bit more. However, we also have an extended interview with freelance journalist Sanjana Varghese (@sanjanamv) on the topic of the socialist Indian state of Kerala and its success with controlling covid-19. We hope you enjoy. Sanjana's work can all be found here: https://sanjanavarghese.com We also want to pass along a link from ActBlue that lets you donate to a bunch of bail funds, Black Lives Matter local organizations, LGBTQ+ care organisations, trans rights organisations, and many more. These are all based in the US and are helping to relieve the financial burden place by America's terrible legal system on protesters and vulnerable people. Get it here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/bail_funds_george_floyd Also, please help us save Nour Cash and Carry from the band Housekeeping. Yes, literally the horrible pricks we mentioned in this episode are trying to gentrify Brixton Market. There's a petition here: https://www.change.org/p/lambeth-council-save-nour-cash-carry-brixton If you want one of our *fine* new shirts, designed by Matt Lubchansky, then e-mail trashfuturepodcast [at] gmail [dot] com. £15 for patrons, £20 for non-patrons, plus shipping. *WEB DESIGN ALERT* Tom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind GYDS dot com).
