DOCTOROW CORY THE INTERNET CON HOW TO SEIZE THE...

When the tech platforms promised a future of "connection " they were lying. They said their
"walled gardens" would keep us safe  but those were prison walls.  The platforms locked us into
their systems and made us easy pickings  ripe for extraction. Twitter  Facebook and other Big
Tech platforms are hard to leave by design. They hold hostage the people we love  the
communities that matter to us  the audiences and customers we rely on. The impossibility of
staying connected to these people after you delete your account has nothing to do with
technological limitations: it' s a business strategy in service to commodifying your
personal life and relationships.  We can - we must - dismantle the tech platforms. In The
Internet Con   Cory Doctorow explains how to seize the means of computation  by forcing Silicon
Valley to do the thing it fears most: interoperate. Interoperability will tear down the walls
between technologies  allowing users to leave platforms  remix their media  and reconfigure
their devices without corporate permission.  Interoperability is the only route to the rapid
and enduring annihilation of the platforms. The Internet Con is the disassembly manual we need
to take back our internet.
