Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. Audible ebook ( ![]() I think the ideas are must-reads. However, this is an extremely long book and it feels like she has introduced new words that she thinks should be part of a new lexicon. Instrumentarian is the one that stood out to me, but I'm pretty sure there were others. It was just so long that I don't want to go through it again to find them. Listening on audiobook was probably a mistake and I may have liked it more in print. Dense. The premise is that Google and Facebook are collecting data about everything people do and in many ways without their knowledge. They then sell this information to advertisers which then get people to behave in certain ways. Facebook has done experiments where they place particular items in people's feed -- your friend has voted -- and then have measured how likely that is to get you to vote. And she references instances of the Google and Facebook lying about what their code does, dragging their feet in response public inquiries, etc. She ties it together with similar historical eras -- the gilded age -- and scientific philosophies -- BF Skinner's behaviorism. To me, what was new and alarming is the closed loop -- ultimately the data being collected is used to change people's behavior -- buy something, read something, stay on a website, etc. All without any regulation or over site by democratic institutions. All in all a grim view of what the future will bring. This book could have been condensed down to half its size and still clearly gotten its point across. It did have a number of interesting chapters that kept me in it for the long haul, but it wasn't easy. Overall, I enjoyed the majority of the content, minus one star for the writing. Intéressant avec de très bons exemples concrets de ce qui se met en place dès maintenant. Dommage qu'l y ait plusieurs fois des redites, je ne comprends pas l'intérêt de "spammer" "'capitalisme de surveillance " à toutes les pages ? De" plus il est trop long pour la plupart des gens, donc réservé à une caste d'intello! A retenir le fondement de ces 3 questions: Qui sait ?

"Shoshana Zuboff, named "the true prophet of the information age" by the Financial Times, has always been ahead of her time. Her seminal book In the Age of the Smart Machine foresaw the consequences of a then-unfolding era of computer technology. Now, three decades later she asks why the once-celebrated miracle of digital is turning into a nightmare. Zuboff tackles the social, political, business, personal, and technological meaning of "surveillance capitalism" as an unprecedented new market form. It is not simply about tracking us and selling ads, it is the business model for an ominous new marketplace that aims at nothing less than predicting and modifying our everyday behavior--where we go, what we do, what we say, how we feel, who we're with. The consequences of surveillance capitalism for us as individuals and as a society vividly come to life in The Age of Surveillance Capitalism's pathbreaking analysis of power. The threat has shifted from a totalitarian "big brother" state to a universal global architecture of automatic sensors and smart capabilities: A "big other" that imposes a fundamentally new form of power and unprecedented concentrations of knowledge in private companies--free from democratic oversight and control"-- Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
