Users: What Big Tech Doesn't Want You to Know - and What to Do About It

內容簡介

內容簡介 這是一部內幕指南，講述政治家與政策制定者如何將我們的民主出賣給矽谷，以及我們需要做些什麼來奪回它。2013 年，前好萊塢導演碧班·凱德倫（Beeban Kidron）製作了一部關於兒童網路生活的開創性紀錄片。她揭露了一個關於剝削與貪婪的震驚故事，這改變了一切——並點燃了她追究科技巨頭責任的無情征程。在《用戶》（Users）中，凱德倫揭示了她作為活動家與立法者生涯中所學到的一切，帶領你走進英國議會、聯合國、白宮以及矽谷的大廳。透過她與遊說者及「科技男」（tech bros）的交鋒，你將見證這些權勢人物如何運用殘酷手段，透過謊言、欺騙與竊取來獲得不受限制的權力，同時規避那些旨在保護我們的規則與監管。你將看到問題不在於技術本身，而在於其使用與濫用。那些為了聯繫人們而打造的工具，被重新部署來分裂、懲罰、分心與控制；而我們的科技霸主擁有一切——卻繼續對任何事都不負責任。現在我們看穿了他們的把戲，是時候反擊了。這本書將向你展示哪裡出了錯、誰該負責任，以及我們可以對此做些什麼。This is an insider’s guide to how politicians and policy makers have sold our democracy to Silicon Valley and what we need to do to take it back.In 2013, former Hollywood director Beeban Kidron made a ground-breaking documentary about the lives of children online. She uncovered a shocking story of exploitation and greed that changed everything – and ignited her relentless crusade to hold the tech giants accountable.In Users, Kidron reveals everything she’s learned from her life as a campaigner and legislator, taking you inside the halls of Parliament and the UN to the White House and Silicon Valley. Through her encounters with lobbyists and tech bros, you’ll witness the ruthless tactics these powerful men use to lie, cheat and steal their way to unchecked power, all while avoiding the rules and regulations meant to protect us.You’ll see how the issue is not technology itself, but its use and abuse. How tools built to connect people are redeployed to divide, punish, distract, and control; while our tech overlords come to own everything – but continue to be held responsible for nothing. Now that we know their game, it's time to fight back. This book will show you where it all went wrong, who's really to blame, and what we can do about it.
