*** Longlisted for the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year 2025 ***Misogyny, conspiratorialism, surveillance, manipulation, fraud, and AI slop are drowning the internet. For the monopolists who dominate online - X, TikTok, Amazon, Meta, Apple - this is all part of the playbook. The process is what leading tech critic Cory Doctorow has dubbed 'enshittification'. First, the platform attracts users with some bait, such as free access; then the activity is monetized, bringing in the business customers and degrading the user experience; then, once everyone is trapped and competitors eradicated, the platform wrings out all the value and transfers it to their executives and shareholders.

As a result, online public squares have become places of torment, and online retailers are hellish dumpster fires. The virtual gathering places where we once imagined the world's problems might be resolved are now a sewer of hatred and abuse - thoroughly enshittified.

Doctorow enumerates the symptoms, lays out the diagnosis, and identifies the best responses to these diseased platforms: the monopolies online must be shattered. Companies too big to fail or to jail - and much too big to care - must be cut down to size. Only an attack on corporate power will permit effective regulation and real privacy. Tech unions must protect the workers who should, in turn, defend us against their bosses' sadism and greed.

Praise for The Internet Con:'One of the Internet's most interesting writers.' -- Edward Snowden'This book fills me with hope that a radical yet plausible alternative to computational tyranny can be developed and deployed.' -- Douglas Rushkoff, author of Survival of the Fittest'This book is the instruction manual Big Tech doesn't want you to read. It deconstructs their crummy products, undemocratic business models, rigged legal regimes, and lies. Crack this book and help build something better.' -- Astra Taylor'A brilliant barn burner of a book. Cory is one of the sharpest tech critics, and he shows with fierce clarity how our computational future could be otherwise.' -- Kate Crawford, author of The Atlas of AI

Me encantó, love it, looks stylish and feels like a very good quality product made of leather, so far no problems with the size of my cards fitting on it. Only seems to be like top up once you put a lot inside it if not just regular size wallet even a little bit smaller than a regular one

Great wallet but its a snug fit
Size: One Size, Color: Black (Hunter)
Listen to the other reviews! This wallet is ALMOST perfect. It came in 2 days without prime, looks amazing, is slim, and has everything you need in a wallet, except for space. Not that it doesnt have a bunch of card slots because it does, but you cant get the cards in them! It is real leather which is great but it also means its tight. My husband could only fit one card in each slot. He tried to put two cards in the side slots and now we cant get them out. The id slot is a tight fit and the plastic window is so small that once we actually got his license in it, it cuts off his birthday and other important details so he will have to take it out in order to show it, which takes about 2 minutes to remove it. Knowing how real leather works, I know it will stretch out but for the time being I feel bad for whoever is behind him in line. Other than that its a great wallet and he loves the look, feel, and the fact that it has the 2 cash pockets. If it wasnt for the tight fit, it would be 5 stars.
