In the books under review, three authors from different disciplines and backgrounds seek to fathom this revolution. They are: Tim Berners-Lee, who has written a memoir with a focus on his status as the inventor of the World Wide Web, though he also examines surveillance capitalism, tech monopolies and polarization. His title derives from a phrase he typed at the opening ceremony for the Olympic Games in London in 2012: it was \u201cmy statement about what I wanted the web to be\u201d. Then there is Cory Doctorow, an author, blogger and journalist who presents a \u201cnatural history\u201d of…the process by which internet platforms are \u201cgetting worse\u201d \u2013 along with his views on how this decline might be arrested. Finally, there is Nick Clegg, former British deputy prime minister and Facebook\/Meta employee. His book is also concerned with the future of the internet, and is described by Tony Blair as \u201ca wake-up call we cannot afford to ignore\u201d. All three authors agree that the internet is suffering from at least one, and perhaps several, pathologies. But they disagree about the most effective remedies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
