Summary
"No matter how pervasive and powerful social media websites become, users always have the option of disconnecting--right? Not exactly, as Tero Karppi reveals in this disquieting book. Pointing out that platforms like Facebook see disconnection as an existential threat--and have undertaken wide-ranging efforts to eliminate it--Karppi argues that users' ability to control their digital lives is gradually dissipating" -- Amazon.com.
