![]() ![]() ![]() Shoshana Zuboff is a Professor of Internet and Society at Harvard Law School, providing a unique perspective informed by economics, computer science, behavioural psychology, sociology and law. Focussing on the big three organisations that have thrived on surveillance capitalism: Google, Facebook and Microsoft (other technology companies are available), Zuboff traces society’s journey from data discovery to the situation we’re currently in: a thriving, unequal market of behavioural futures. This is a book that agitates and campaigns for greater awareness of the general population, and stronger regulatory governance regarding the collection, use and sale of personal information. This is not a book that’s anti-technology, anti-data, or anti-capitalism.
