Book Description
The reign of Big Tech is here, and Americans’ First Amendment rights hang by a keystroke. Amassing unimaginable amounts of personal data, giants like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple—once symbols of American ingenuity and freedom—have become a techno-oligarchy with overwhelming economic and political power. Decades of unchecked data collection have given Big Tech more targeted control over Americans’ daily lives than any company or government in the world. In The Tyranny of Big Tech, Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri argues that these mega-corporations—controlled by the robber barons of the modern era—are the gravest threat to American liberty in decades. To reverse course, Hawley argues, we must correct progressives’ mistakes of the past. That means recovering the link between liberty and democratic participation, building an economy that makes the working class strong, independent, and beholden to no one, and curbing the influence of corporate and political elites. Big Tech and its allies do not deal gently with those who cross them, and Senator Hawley proudly bears his own battle scars. But hubris is dangerous. The time is ripe to overcome the tyranny of Big Tech by reshaping the business and legal landscape of the digital world.

The World’s Larger Search Engine—Tactics Revealed! A must-read if you want to know how the number 1 search engine treats you! This is an intriguing story of how one of the United States’ foregone publishing company was denied honest access for indexing to one of the largest search engines in the world. His company was blacklisted because of his conservative view based upon their political bias. This eventually turns into a lawsuit, for which sets the precedent for future complaints against an internet goliath machine that leverages their power to squash any website that does not have the same political views. The results turn into a cliff-hanger in US Federal Court for which Mr. Lincoln hires the most powerful US attorneys and makes a complaint regarding racketeering and how one-sided the largest search engine results really are. It is a week-by-week diary of the events that take place over a one-year period of dismay when going up against the best attorneys they have to offer. The twist and turns are a bone-chilling, case-by-case true story to see who comes out on top.

Polarized by Degrees
Author: Matt Grossmann
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1009063464
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Over the past several decades, American society has experienced fundamental changes – from shifting relations between social groups and evolving language and behavior norms to the increasing value of a college degree. These transformations have polarized the nation's political climate and ignited a perpetual culture war. In a sequel to their award-winning collaboration Asymmetric Politics, Grossmann and Hopkins draw on an extensive variety of evidence to explore how these changes have affected both major parties. They show that the Democrats have become the home of highly-educated citizens with progressive social views who prefer credentialed experts to make policy decisions, while Republicans have become the populist champions of white voters without college degrees who increasingly distrust teachers, scientists, journalists, universities, non-profit organizations, and even corporations. The result of this new “diploma divide” between the parties is an increasingly complex world in which everything is about politics – and politics is about everything.

Buy now to get the key takeaways from Josh Hawley's The Tyranny of Big Tech. Sample Key Takeaways: 1) Big Tech is managed by thieves who drain prosperity and power from society by creating an oligarchy. Consumers’ personal data are extracted, tracked, and fed into a vast data machine to produce algorithms that manipulate users with advertisements tailored for them. This produces an online-addicted economy, with a never-ending cycle. 2) Corporate liberalism is taking over public philosophy, becoming accepted by the establishment of both major parties. This has made it more difficult to prove that concentrated power is detrimental, whether in government or private corporations. Liberty is threatened by the rise of monopolies and decline of an independent working class.
