A Superb analysis by @shohinisengupta of India’s Unique Digital Identity (aadhaar) project via Donna Haraway: Enumerative Indian State, and the 'Ideal Cyborg'

[Shohini @shohinisengupta]

Wrote a little something on the cyborgs we have all become, the enumerative Indian State, and the great Indian databasing project that consists of Aadhaar, but also its other associates. This piece was written with a lot of grief, and heartbreak.
