The Age of Surveillance Capitalism by Shoshana Zuboff

4.0

---

This was a fascinating and disturbing read. Quite long, and a bit dense--not *quite* unreadably academic, but closer to that then is my general preference. Lots of really interesting information, though I couldn't help feel a bit defeated by it all and I wish there'd been something hopeful at the end or even just some ideas on how we can try and take action against the increasingly pervasive surveillance capitalism besides wholesale abstinence, which frankly isn't a super viable option.
