Quotes by Tom Slee (?)

“While the Sharing Economy is often presented as a diverse set of commercial and non-commercial initiatives around the world (from tool-exchange co ops to pet-sitting and so on), this presentation is a bit misleading. The Sharing Economy is almost entirely a small number of technology firms backed by large amounts of venture capital.”
― Tom Slee, What's Yours Is Mine: Against the Sharing Economy

“Bitcoin itself has already cycled through the familiar trajectory of rebellious alternative, promising a currency independent of the state, through to a venture-capital-funded investment vehicle in which 0.1% of the participants own 50% of the coins.”
