4.5 stars. Genuinely revolutionary ideas and occasionally soaring writing are occasionally bogged down by repetitive prose. I found myself skipping a few chapters because they simply rehashed previous points. A few callbacks to central ideas are normal in any nonfiction work, but this became excessive. Still highly recommend reading, even if only the introduction and conclusion, while skimming everything else.
Should be mandatory reading for any person in tech, especially software developers (or at least sections of it)
This one was a dense and dry read, maybe a little bit too long.
It brings a detailed account of the emergence of Surveillance Capitalism and how it threatens democracy, privacy and information.
