Description

Navneet Alang explores the wonder and hope we once felt for new digital technologies that has since been replaced by skepticism and apathy as surveillance culture and extractive business models have taken over. He writes, "under the umbrella of capitalism, big tech is simply a friend to the status quo and the world’s problems seem not just unaddressed but further from solutions than ever."
