“Virtualization, cloud computing, and robust telecommunication provide new capabilities as part of CoOP that can assist organizations in achieving the security, availability, and confidentiality requirements of the new “always on” business model with limited or no interruption even during disruptive events.”
Jeffery Sauntry

“A reminder that Goodreads is owned by Amazon, and everything you do here supports Big Data and corporate surveillance. You should be concerned, especially if you read books about liberation.

A friend recommended StoryGraph, a Black-owned independent alternative.
