Read moreDetailsWhen Arina, a 22-year-old illustrator in Russia, first started using the freelance work platform Upwork last year, it changed her life."It was like opening a door into another world for me," she said, speaking on the condition that her last name not be used out of fear of government repercussions. Upwork connected her with clients in India, the United States, Australia and Germany, allowing her to make a living in a field in which she had struggled to find work locally.But last week, Upwork abruptly pulled out of Russia. For more than a decade, American and European tech companies have made a business of facilitating online labor -- from gig work to content creation and online marketplaces to payment processors. Now, tens of thousands of Russian video game streamers on Twitch, gig workers on Upwork, adult-content creators on OnlyFans and computer programmers working on contract have all lost their livelihoods, at least temporarily.The gig work companies acted in response to demands from lawmakers and public sentiment against Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Read moreDetailsIt’s 1.30 in the morning, and I’m about to watch a duel between magicians. One is a “demonolater”, a word I have never heard before – someone who claims they worship demons and can petition them in return for knowledge or power. The other describes himself as a “Solomonic magician”, and claims to be able to command demons to do his bidding, as some Jewish and Islamic traditions have believed of King Solomon, who ruled Israel in the 10th century BC.I first discovered this debate because, in the course of studying 16th-century books of magic attributed to Solomon, I found, to my astonishment, that “Solomonic magic” is still alive and well today, and growing in popularity. Twitter suggested to me that I might be interested in an account called “Solomonic magic”, and a few clicks later I found myself immersed in a vast online community of young occultists, tweeting and retweeting the latest theories and controversies and using TikTok to share their craft.To my further bemusement, it seemed that the tradition of Solomonic magic had recently faced accusations that its strict and authoritative approach to the command of demons amounted to a form of abuse, akin to domestic violence. As…
