Techno-Terrorism 

The use of various cyber related techniques to trigger, threaten, silence, intimidate, and destroy others. Where before terrorism was largely confined to direct physical acts, it has now expanded to include techno-terror and abuses of online power as attack methodologies. Techniques include but are not limited to: denial-of-service website/device attacks; hacking/manipulation of phones, computers, and wi-fi; use of spam bots to flood email accounts; penetration/activation of house alarms; fake texts, emails and social media comments with provoking content; malevolently intended social media shadow-bans, advertising blocks, account warnings, post/comment removals; a myriad of online PSYOPS designed to bewilder and terrorize targets. Although initiated from behind the scenes, acts of techno-terrorism are no less dangerous and no less criminal than traditional terrorism. This now common form of modern warfare puts all of us at great risk.
Techno-terrorism is the most common attack method in the modern world.

Techno Love 

It's when you are romantically in love with someone, but you have never physically touched each other. Only energy and vibration, transmitted through technology, connects you.
Since we have not met in person yet, all we have is techno love for now.

techno-millerism

The "it's happening any day now" philosophy of millerism as applied to technology. Useful term to use against techbros who constantly bet hard on things that big tech companies say are the "next big thing"(i.e. crypto, AI, etc.)
"DUDE CRYPTO IS GONNA BE HUGE! JUST YOU WAIT!"

"This is just techno-millerism"

Techno-Liberalism

A political-economic formation where liberal democratic institutions—elections, rights, free speech—coexist with technological infrastructure that systematically undermines them. Techno-liberalism is the ideology that presents platform capitalism, algorithmic governance, and corporate surveillance as compatible with freedom, while in practice creating a new form of control. It masquerades as "choice" while engineering outcomes, as "openness" while building walled gardens, as "democracy" while enabling algorithmic manipulation. Techno-liberalism is the ideological wing of techno-feudalism: it preserves the language of liberalism while hollowing out its substance, replacing citizens with users, rights with terms of service, and public sphere with data-extraction platforms.
Techno-Liberalism Example: "The platform claimed to champion free speech while shadow‑banning dissenters—techno‑liberalism, using liberal rhetoric to mask algorithmic control."

Techno-Neoliberalism

The fusion of neoliberal economic doctrine—privatization, deregulation, market fundamentalism—with technological infrastructure. Techno-neoliberalism treats everything as a platform to be optimized: public services become apps, citizens become users, democracy becomes algorithmic preference aggregation. It champions “disruption” as an end in itself, ignoring that disruption mostly transfers wealth upward. Techno-neoliberalism’s signature move is to frame privatization as innovation: replacing public libraries with Amazon, public transit with Uber, public healthcare with wearables. It uses technology to dismantle the public sphere while claiming to modernize it.
Techno-Neoliberalism Example: "The city sold its public transit data to a ride‑share company, calling it a 'smart city innovation'—techno‑neoliberalism, privatizing public infrastructure under the guise of tech progress."

Techno-Capitalism

The current stage of capitalism where value extraction is mediated through digital platforms, data surveillance, and algorithmic management. Techno-capitalism differs from earlier capitalism in that its primary raw material is data, its primary labor is increasingly precarious gig work managed by apps, and its primary mode of control is algorithmic rather than managerial. It generates unprecedented concentration of wealth in platform owners while atomizing workers into isolated contractors. Techno-capitalism presents itself as post‑capitalist—a frictionless world of innovation—while intensifying exploitation and extending surveillance into every domain of life.
Techno-Capitalism Example: "He worked three delivery apps, each tracking his every move, paying him per trip with no benefits—techno‑capitalism, using technology to recreate piecework without the protections of the factory floor."
