<p>&quot;Little Brother&quot; von Cory Doctorow ( <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>pluralistic</span></a></span> ) handelt davon, wie schnell die eigene Heimat zum Feindstaat werden kann, wenn die Freiheit der Sicherheit untergeordnet wird. Und davon wie schnell die Technik, die uns ermächtigt und vernetzt, zum Mittel der Überwachung und Unterdrückung werden kann. Dabei macht Doctorow Mut mit den Mitteln der Technik für die Demokratie zu kämpfen. <a href="/tags/bücherwabe/" rel="tag">#bücherwabe</a> <a href="/tags/chemnitz/" rel="tag">#chemnitz</a> <a href="/tags/bücher/" rel="tag">#bücher</a> <a href="/tags/literatur/" rel="tag">#literatur</a> <a href="/tags/lesen/" rel="tag">#lesen</a> <a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#books</a> <a href="/tags/literature/" rel="tag">#literature</a> <a href="/tags/bookstodon/" rel="tag">#bookstodon</a> <a href="/tags/scifi/" rel="tag">#scifi</a> <a href="/tags/politik/" rel="tag">#politik</a> <a href="/tags/politics/" rel="tag">#politics</a></p>

<p>On this day in 1938, BBC Television aired the first science fiction TV program, an adaptation of a section of the Karel Čapek play R.U.R.. This play is also famous for coining the term &quot;robot&quot; from robota, or &quot;forced labor&quot;, derived from &quot;rab&quot;, meaning &quot;slave&quot;.</p><p>Article from 2016: <a href="https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/78-years-ago-today-bbc-aired-first-science-fiction-television-program-180958126/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/78-years-ago-today-bbc-aired-first-science-fiction-television-program-180958126/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-n</span><span class="invisible">ews/78-years-ago-today-bbc-aired-first-science-fiction-television-program-180958126/</span></a></p><p>More about the play: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R.U.R" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R.U.R</a>.</p><p><a href="/tags/otd/" rel="tag">#OTD</a> <a href="/tags/onthisday/" rel="tag">#OnThisDay</a> <a href="/tags/history/" rel="tag">#history</a> <a href="/tags/scifi/" rel="tag">#scifi</a> <a href="/tags/robots/" rel="tag">#robots</a></p>
