[Air-L] Marxist Critiques of Online Advertising?

[Christian Fuchs]

Hi,

It is just interesting that the words "Marx" and "Marxist critique" turn 
up on this list...

Just something to observe - we are living in Marxian times, indeed... So 
we need Marxist Internet Studies. But what is Marxist Internet Studies?

Best, Christian
