Soshana Zuboff’s latest book is about surveillance capitalism. It is an eye-opening interpretation of how technologies are used as invisible but highly effective means for power. You can see her discuss the book in the video below.
This month, Cory Doctorow who is a science fiction writer but also a prominent thinker on technology and society posted a free book titled ‘How to destroy surveillance capitalism’ which provides a different interpretation that I think nicely complements that offered by Zuboff. Makes for a great read.
If you like the book, consider subscribing Doctorow’s Pluralistic newsletter, which is the best that I have seen so far for people interested in tech and society.
