The paper is back behind the paywall, but there's more a longer read over here: https://roarmag.org/essays/digital-ecosocialism-tech-deal/
The 10 points in full:
1. Ensuring respect for planetary boundaries
2. Phasing out intellectual property
3. Socializing physical infrastructure
4. Socializing platforms
5. Socialist internet decentralization
6. Socializing data economy & digital intelligence
7. Banning forced ads & consumerism
8. Banning tech for police, prisons, military, and nat'l security agencies & replace with community safety
9. Socializing R&D
10. Ending the digital divide through reparations
