About this listen

Every time you download a new app, open a web browser, or take an online quiz, you're generating data online - and the data is going to who owns it, not you.

We are now in an era of dark surveillance fueled by the rise of surveillance capitalism. Large corporations are mining information about the consumer and their daily habits without their knowledge and turning that into profit.

This audiobook explores how we have traded our privacy for convenience and how we can get it back. You will have the facts about the intersection of big business, social media, and online privacy.

Topics include:

  • Why privacy on the web isn't private
  • How privacy policies are actually surveillance policies
  • Why big tech companies are influencing our government
  • What information your phone is broadcasting about you even when you're not using it
  • How surveillance predicts and controls everything from your internet usage to your shopping habits

Silicon Valley has been mining its product, which is you, for decades now. As the old saying goes, "If your not paying for a product, then you are the product." If you want to stop being a service tool for capitalism, you need to understand how you're being used.
