No Brasil, as recentes mudanças legislativas e regulatórias no setor de criptoativos têm sido um tema de ampla discussão. Com a promulgação do Marco Legal das Criptomoedas, que estabelece um regime de licenças para corretoras e intensifica as penas para crimes com ativos digitais, surge a necessidade urgente de compreender e integrar essas novas práticas regulatórias de forma eficaz.

Der Autor eines Katastrophenromans hätte es sich nicht schöner ausdenken können: Ausgerechnet an einem Freitag, dem Dreizehnten, wird der potenziell gefährliche Asteroid (99942) Apophis der Menschheit extrem nahekommen. Nur noch rund 30.000 Kilometer liegen am 13. April 2029 zwischen dem kosmischen Gesteinsbrocken und der Erde. Man wird Apophis dann auch von Würzburg aus mit bloßem Auge als Lichtpunkt am Abendhimmel sehen können.

Eigentlich sind Onkoproteine für Menschen überlebenswichtig: Tausendfach sorgen sie in unseren Körpern dafür, dass Zellen wachsen und sich teilen. Sie unterstützen die Wundheilung, reparieren Schäden im Erbgut und stärken unser Immunsystem. Funktionieren Onkoproteine nicht mehr richtig, wird es jedoch schnell gefährlich – dann verursachen sie unkontrolliertes Zellwachstum und lassen Tumore entstehen. Das Onkoprotein MYCN beispielsweise gilt als Verursacher einer Vielzahl aggressiver Krebstypen und Tumore, unter denen vor allem Kinder leiden.

When the story first came out in May 2024, security services issued no official statement, except for a brief announcement by the Internal Security Forces (ISF) one day later that “the Cybercrime and Intellectual Property Bureau arrested six suspects in Beirut, Mount Lebanon, and the North, including three minors popular on TikTok.”

Over the last two decades, there has been no shortage of predictions regarding the relevance of cyberspace in conflict. As far back as 1993, John Arquilla, a professor of defense analysis at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, and David Ronfeldt, an American researcher known for his work on information-centric and network-centric warfare, warned that a “cyberwar is coming.” The Israeli occupation’s parallel cyberwar alongside the military operations in Gaza is fulfilling this prophecy.

Marina’s intellectual practice truly constituted a form of praxis. Her work was always embodied and situated in a commonly sensed world. For all its conceptual rigour, it was as aesthetic as it was theoretical; it would be a grave mistake to paint Marina as some niche theorist who happened to specialize in writing about value or autonomy. Such notions were not discussed as pure concepts but experienced and actively problematized in various collaborative contexts—ranging from the “old” Jan van Eyck, to Casco, W.A.G.E. and Cinenova.

On 28 April 2024 and ahead of World Press Freedom Day, Research Fellow Iva Nenadić spoke about media freedom and journalism in Croatia and the EU for N1 Hrvatska Newsnight.
