I've been questioning myself about Big Tech and its impact on our world for some time now. Growing up I was fascinated by antitrust laws and its possibilities. Getting older, I realized slowly how we removed those vital barriers one by one in our societies and how we let enormous monopolies to existence, threatening the fragile equilibrium of our democracies.

Big Tech have been a danger for society for some years now, each year that passes is another step further into having no control over them anymore. This book is an absolute mandatory read if we want to be able to accomplish anything in the coming future.

It’s not a book for people who want to get rid of technology itself. Technology isn’t the problem. Stop thinking about what technology does and start thinking about who technology does it to and who it does it for.
