Story
You might have trouble imagining life without your social media accounts, but virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier insists that we’re better off without them. In his important new audiobook, Lanier, who participates in no social media, offers powerful and personal reasons for all of us to leave these dangerous online platforms behind before it’s too late. Lanier remains a tech optimist, so while demonstrating the evil that rules social media business models today, he also envisions a humanistic setting for social networking that can direct us towards richer and fuller way of living and connecting.

Story
Who Owns the Future? is a visionary reckoning with the effects network technologies have had on our economy. Lanier asserts that the rise of digital networks led our economy into recession and decimated the middle class. Now, as technology flattens more and more industries - from media to medicine to manufacturing - we are facing even greater challenges to employment and personal wealth. But there is an alternative to allowing technology to own our future....

Story
Jaron Lanier, considerado o pai da realidade virtual e uma das maiores referências (e críticos) do Vale do Silício, não tem conta em nenhuma rede social e deixa bem claro por quê: “Evito as redes sociais pela mesma razão que evito as drogas.” Segundo ele, as bases da internet foram fundamentadas em um modelo de negócio regido pelas propagandas. Os anúncios, nossos velhos conhecidos das mídias tradicionais, ganharam uma nova dimensão à medida que a internet se desenvolvia.

Story
I segreti più profondi della Cia e dell'Nsa sono stati hackerati e resi pubblici, più di una volta. Ma stai certo che da nessuna parte, nemmeno nel dark web, troverai una copia dell'algoritmo di ricerca di Google o dell'algoritmo del feed di Facebook. Oggi questi algoritmi determinano l'andamento della vita umana sul nostro pianeta. Jaron Lanier, informatico della Silicon Valley, pioniere della realtà virtuale, non ha nessun account social. In "Dieci ragioni per cancellare subito i tuoi account social" spiega perché non dovresti averne nemmeno tu.

Story
Bogen er ikke imod ny teknologi. Det er en optimistisk bog om, at vi kan gøre det bedre. Den er kritisk over for den forretningsmodel, der styrer de sociale medier. Vi får det hele gratis, men til gengæld er vi blevet reduceret til produkter og verdens rigeste virksomheder lever af at høste vores data og vores kommunikation for bedre at kunne manipulere os. Det er muligt at gøre noget helt andet på nettet, men først må vi ud af det spindelvæv, som vi er blevet fanget i.
