Containing Big Tech: How to Protect Our Civil Rights, Economy, and Democracy

Computers - Computer Business & Culture

One Review:

“Tom Kemp's new book about the dangers of the five Big Tech companies is several books in one volume: It is a detailed history on how Microsoft, Google, Meta/Facebook, Amazon and Apple have become the tech powerhouses and near-monopolists with their stranglehold on digital services, at the same time threatening our privacy.

It is a reference work for consumers who are concerned about what private information is shared by these vendors, and how to take back control over their data.

It is also an operating manual for business IT managers and executives who are looking to comply with privacy regs and also to prevent their own sensitive data from leaking online.

And it is a legislative to-do list for how to fashion better data and privacy protection for our digital future.

It is a fascinating and somewhat terrifying read, and should be the operations manual for both consumers and business IT managers alike.”
