What does the third world get for being on the internet? Exploitation, labor, repression, disinformation… but also liberation, community, self-preservation. This collection speaks to our counternarratives: the identities, selves, and bodies that carry, inhabit, and dwell within the internet but are often obfuscated in its tellings.
The third world makes the internet what it is. From call center agents, migrant workers staffing data centers, paid trolls, your third wife found in FOREIGNER SEEKING FILIPINA groups, livestreamers, the laborers behind artificial intelligence, the disinformed, the kidnap-for-ransom recruitment, new evangelists, hubs for radicalization, your family Viber chat, cottage printers... our history, made and unmade, our life, lived and unlived.
The Filipino internet is dead. The Filipino internet is alive, it sings.
A project of Developh and the Philippine Internet Archive
