In Propaganda Wars: How the Global Elite Control What You See, Think, and Feel, New York Times bestselling writers Glenn Beck and Justin Haskins uncover the secrets behind the greatest system of control and manipulation ever created.

Surveillance permeates every aspect of our lives today. Every click on the keyboard, every call, text or email, every purchase, every contact with a doctor or the police or a government department, each time you walk under a video camera or pass through a security check, and in many other ways, you are recorded, identified, traced, and tracked. This Very Short Introduction investigates how surveillance makes people visible, how it grew to its present size and prevalence, how it came to rely on technologies of data-handling, and how it developed its own cultural features.

This work offers a critical and in-depth analysis of how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and social networks are transforming power dynamics in contemporary society. By exploring the intersections between technology, digital governance, and social control, the book reveals the ethical and political implications of the use of these innovations.

PsyWar is when a government coordinates and directs deployment of propaganda, censorship, and psychological operations (psyops) tools in campaigns designed to manipulate public opinion. PsyWar: Enforcing the New World Order exposes the history and tactics of modern psychological warfare on the American people and offers a way forward for citizens to resist totalitarian control.

The global battle among the three dominant digital powers-the United States, China, and the European Union-is intensifying. All three regimes are racing to regulate tech companies, with each advancing a competing vision for the digital economy while attempting to expand its sphere of influence in the digital world. In Digital Empires, her provocative follow-up to The Brussels Effect, Anu Bradford explores a rivalry that will shape the world in the decades to come.

Deutschland rechts außen - eine Gefahr für uns alle. Die Gefahr, die von der AfD ausgeht, wird im öffentlichen Diskurs nicht abgebildet. Die Partei wird verharmlost, indem sie etwa als "rechtspopulistisch" bezeichnet wird. Dabei hat sie sich längst zu einer rechtsextremen Partei entwickelt. Ihre Gewaltbereitschaft wird regelmäßig ausgespart. Zugleich erzielt sie hohe Zustimmungswerte, und Vertreter:innen demokratischer Parteien grenzen sich nicht genügend von ihr ab. Cremer zeigt eine Entwicklung, die angesichts der deutschen Geschichte lange nicht für möglich gehalten wurde.

Best-selling journalist Antony Loewenstein, author of Disaster Capitalism, uncovers a largely hidden world in a global investigation with secret documents, revealing interviews and on-the-ground reporting. This book shows in-depth, for the first time, how Palestine has become the perfect laboratory for the Israeli military-techno complex: surveillance, home demolitions, indefinite incarceration and brutality to the hi-tech tools that drive the 'Start-up Nation'.

After a series of escapades both online and off that brought him in and out of 4chan forums, the halls of power, heroin addiction, and federal prison, Barrett Brown is a free man. He was arrested for his part in an attempt to catalog, interpret, and disseminate top-secret documents exposed in a security lapse by the intelligence contractor Stratfor in 2011. An influential journalist who is also active in the hacktivist collective Anonymous, Brown recounts exploits from a life shaped by an often self-destructive drive to speak truth to power.

In 1953, a top-secret manual teaching agents sleight-of-hand and other deception techniques was written for the CIA by America’s then most famous magician. All copies were believed destroyed by the CIA’s purge of the infamous MKULTRA documents in 1973, and there was no proof of the manual’s existence . . . until a copy was discovered among the CIA’s recently declassified archives. The manual in this work is thought to represent the only surviving copy of magician John Mulholland’s instructions.

Renée DiResta’s powerful, original investigation into the way power and influence have been profoundly transformed reveals how a virtual rumor mill of niche propagandists increasingly shapes public opinion. While propagandists position themselves as trustworthy Davids, their reach, influence, and economics make them classic Goliaths—invisible rulers who create bespoke realities to revolutionize politics, culture, and society. Their work is driven by a simple maxim: if you make it trend, you make it true.

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are on the rise. In an attempt to reinvent money as we know it, central bankers and other policymakers around the world are currently researching, developing, and launching CBDCs. The prospect has caught the attention of the president of the United States, Congress, international institutions, and government contractors, but the public has largely been left out of this development. That needs to change.

Smart homes are here—domestic spaces bristling with networked technologies that appear to enhance work, entertainment, logistics, health, and security. But these technologies may also extract a cost in attention, money, and privacy. In Threshold, communication and technology expert Heather Suzanne Woods applies rhetorical theory to answer the urgent question of how swiftly proliferating smart homes alter those who inhabit them.

Taking Privacy Seriously offers both a hard-hitting assessment of the origins of today’s privacy-eroding practices and a robust road map for creating individual authority over our personal data. James B. Rule proposes eleven key reforms in the control and use of personal information—including far-reaching new rights for individuals and meaningful responsibilities for data-keeping organizations—all aimed at redressing the balance of power between ordinary citizens and data hungry corporate and government institutions.

Warum KI keine Ahnung hat und trotzdem alles kann. 2023 fing die Künstliche Intelligenz an, zu schreiben und zu sprechen wie ein Mensch. Damit steht die Welt vor einem fundamentalen Umbruch. Unsere Zivilisation, die Art und Weise, wie wir leben und arbeiten, wird so stark verändert werden wie durch die Erfindung des Internets. Noch lässt sich nur erahnen, welches Ausmaß an Innovationen in allen Lebensbereichen nun möglich ist. Fest steht aber, dass wir diese technische und gesellschaftliche Revolution nur dann in unserem Sinne steuern können, wenn wir sie und ihre Pioniere kennen und verstehen.

Through the voices of ordinary people in places far removed from Silicon Valley, Code Dependent explores the impact of a set of powerful, flawed, and often exploitative technologies on individuals, communities, and our wider society. Madhumita Murgia, AI Editor at the FT, exposes how AI can strip away our collective and individual sense of agency – and shatter our illusion of free will.

It was once a utopian dream. But today’s internet, despite its conveniences and connectivity, is the primary cause of a pervasive unease that has taken hold in the U.S. and other democratic societies. The roots of this crisis, argue Frank McCourt and Michael Casey, lie in the prevailing order of the internet. In plain but forceful language, the authors—a civic entrepreneur and an acclaimed journalist—show how a centralized system controlled by a small group of for-profit entities has set this catastrophe in motion and eroded our personhood.

For the past five years—ever since a chance encounter at a dinner party—journalist Byron Tau has been piecing together a secret story: how the whole of the internet and every digital device in the world became a mechanism of intelligence, surveillance, and monitoring.

Colonialism has not disappeared; it has taken a new form. In the new world order where data is the new oil, big Tech companies are grabbing our most basic natural resources - our data - exploiting our labour and connections, and repackaging our information to control our views, track our movements, record our conversations and discriminate against us. In this searing, cutting-edge guide, two leading global researchers and founders of the concept of data colonialism reveal how history can help us understand the emerging future - and how we can fight back.

Known as artificial intelligence, experts warn that the technology comes with great benefits, but also with great warnings. What will we sacrifice for the benefits of this new world? Will we sacrifice our jobs and human relationships for robots? Will we allow machines to read our minds and sacrifice privacy for the benefit of crime reduction? Will we merge with machines and manipulate our genes and DNA to obtain longevity?

Kameras mit Gesichtserkennung überwachen unsere Straßen, und Versicherungsgesellschaften setzen telefonische Lügendetektoren ein. Beim Einkaufen, Geldabheben und Autofahren, wenn wir telefonieren und im Internet surfen: Überall geben wir höchstpersönliche Daten von uns preis. Immer öfter nutzen skrupellose Geschäftemacher das für ihre Zwecke schamlos aus - und auch die Polizei interessiert sich sehr für diese Daten. Denn die digitalen Spuren, die wir unablässig hinterlassen, lassen sich fast unbegrenzt speichern, kombinieren und analysieren - und jedes Mal verlieren wir ein Stück mehr unserer Privatsphäre.
