Phone Wars under mobile connectivity

Abstract

Mobile communications and mobile information spaces represent typical examples for the alleged fluidity of exchange in contemporary networked societies. The commercial market- ing discourse of “accessibility” suggests an even stronger form of empowerment – beyond contextual, special and geographic conditions. Visibility today seems to be something that is primarily organized around commodities and consumer goods. But in societies of control, invisibility has become something that is organized as well.
