Krátky popis
'A fascinating exposé of the world behind your screen. Timely,
often disturbing, and so important' Caroline Criado Perez, author
of Invisible Women 'Takes us beyond Zuckerberg, Bezos et al to a
murkier world where we discover how everything online works and who
benefits from it. Fascinating, engaging and important' Observer
'Could not be more timely' Spectator The internet is a network of
physical cables and connections, a web of wires enmeshing the
world, linking huge data centres to one another and eventually to
us. All are owned by someone, financed by someone, regulated by
someone. We refer to the internet as abstract from reality. By
doing so, we obscure where the real power lies. In this powerful
and necessary book, James Ball sets out on a global journey into
the inner workings of the system. From the computer scientists to
the cable guys, the billionaire investors to the ad men, the
intelligence agencies to the regulators, these are the real-life
figures powering the internet and pulling the strings of our
society. Ball brilliantly shows how an invention once hailed as a
democratising force has concentrated power in places it already
existed – that the system, in other words, remains the same as it
did before.
