Taking Privacy Seriously offers both a hard-hitting assessment of the origins of today’s privacy-eroding practices and a robust road map for creating individual authority over our personal data. James B. Rule proposes eleven key reforms in the control and use of personal information—including far-reaching new rights for individuals and meaningful responsibilities for data-keeping organizations—all aimed at redressing the balance of power between ordinary citizens and data hungry corporate and government institutions.

Beim Autor von Aufgewacht handelt es sich um einen 29-jährigen Polizisten, welcher im Jahre 2015 die Flüchtlingskrise hautnah miterlebte. Ursprünglich ein treuer Staatsdiener veranlasste ihn die Krise dazu, das System immer mehr zu hinterfragen. So fängt das Buch ganz gemach mit der Flüchtlingslüge an, um den Leser auf eine Reise durch Geopolitik, gefälschter Geschichte, das Geldsystem bis hinab in die finsteren Tiefen der geheimen CIA Mind-Control Experimente und der satanischen Elite zu nehmen.

Story
Molti uomini sono soggetti a pesanti condizionamenti sociali, e il primo e forse più pesante di tutti è quello che li illude di essere fuori da ogni condizionamento, liberi di agire e di decidere grazie al loro libero arbitrio. Nel sistema educativo occidentale già ai bambini viene raccontato che nella vita possono fare tutto, essere ciò che vogliono, a patto di ‘credere nei propri sogni’, o espressioni simili dal tipico valore di luogo comune.

Story
In un mondo dove l'uomo crede di avere in mano il suo destino, corriamo un grande rischio: non ammettere che il filo rosso dell'esistenza si possa indebolire e spezzare e non comprendere gli aspetti positivi di ogni trasformazione a partire dalla bellezza di invecchiare. Vittorino Andreoli ci racconta la vecchiaia come capitolo originale dell'esistenza e non come un'età "malata". Chi ha "danzato a lungo col tempo" ha maggiore capacità di sperimentare la gioia e considerare il piacere.

Fortes, intrigantes, resistentes. Os mitos femininos ao longo dos séculos contam um pouco acerca de todas as mulheres. Suas histórias não são diferentes do que vemos hoje: são contos de amor, beleza, ciúme, dominação, revolta. Em mundos governados por homens, as divindades e personagens míticas femininas levantaram as vozes para se impor e conquistar seus espaços.

Story
Mit den Mädchen hat es die Natur auf Das, was man im dramaturgischen Sinne, einen Knalleffekt nennt, abgesehen, indem sie dieselben, auf wenige Jahre, mit überreichlicher Schönheit, Reiz und Fülle ausstattet, auf Kosten ihrer ganzen übrigen Lebenszeit, damit sie nämlich, während jener Jahre, der Phantasie eines Mannes sich in dem Maße bemächtigen könnten, dass er hingerissen wird, die Sorge für sie auf Zeit Lebens, in irgend einer Form, ehrlich zu übernehmen; zu welchem Schritte ihn zu vermögen, die bloße vernünftige Überlegung keine hinlänglich sichere Bürgschaft zu geben schien.

Story
Oggi a un'adolescente basta aprire Instagram per imbattersi in riflessioni femministe (o pseudofemministe), risparmiandosi la necessità di unirsi a un collettivo o a un gruppo di autocoscienza. Brand di abbigliamento si improvvisano femministi e producono magliette in serie con frasi inneggianti al girl power. Pagine social e piattaforme digitali graficamente accurate alternano post o storie motivazionali a inserzioni pubblicitarie. Innumerevoli servizi immateriali propongono corsi sull'empowerment, sulla valorizzazione femminile, su come rendere piú women friendly il proprio business.
