Ellul (1954). Digital devices are no exception to this rule. On the one hand, they give free rein to our desire to chat (Habermas, 2020) and allow unfiltered access to the public space, which is a democratic advance; on the other hand, these digital devices are dissolving the boundaries between public and private space, contributing to a fragmentation of public space, destabilising traditional media at the heart of the proper functioning of public space, and creating a semi-public, fragmented and circular discussion (Habermas, 2022). In line with this criticism, this text makes two points. The first is that it is too early to tell whether the promises of democratisation brought about by digital connectivity will be fulfilled. On the other hand, given the current dangers associated with the economic infrastructure that supports digital connectivity, it is the ethical responsibility of researchers to denounce the voluntary servitude orchestrated by GAFAM.</p>","PeriodicalId":73577,"journal":{"name":"Journal international de bioethique et d'ethique des sciences","volume":"36 3","pages":"41-53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147476623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faced with this situation, central banks are considering Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) to adapt to new technologies, combat the proliferation of private currencies, and secure the monetary system. Furthermore, the digital euro, an interbank currency and credit instrument, would allow for a reversal of the current privilege held by private banks in creating money through lending and offer the ECB the opportunity to finance projects that are not profitable but are socially beneficial. However, this economic centralization raises questions about the guarantee of individual freedoms and the governance of the ECB.

Inspired by the solidarity economy, it offers reliable, contextualised and pluralistic content, while remaining rooted in physical spaces for debate and experimentation.
