Interesting Things on the Internet: December 29th 2014

• Trending Market Forces: Women in Tech. More progress needed, obviously, but we're heading in the right direction.
• HAPPIDROME - Part One. Adam Curtis on good form. Could the Internet remove our hierarchical control systems and lead to a better future, or are we just being controlled and kept happy and sedate by a technocratic elite?
• Dada Data and the Internet of Paternalistic Things. A great snapshot of a potential vision of an IoT future, although not a good future. I (and we, collectively) need to work on better visions for IoT.
