Told in a modern, human, conversational voice, this book isn't about assigning villains. It's about understanding how platforms accidentally became governments, how algorithms quietly took the wheel, and how our information ecosystem shattered into a thousand competing realities. Through deeply researched true stories - from PRISM to the Facebook Papers, from deplatforming battles to the Shadow Wars - the narrative reveals how the written word became both a weapon and a warning in an era where truth spreads at the speed of emotion.
If you've ever wondered how the world became so chaotic, polarized, mistrustful, and painfully divided, this book gives you the map. Not to tell you what to think - but to help you understand the terrain we're all standing on, and the digital forces still shaping our future.
