{"product_id":"dust-net-david-dvorkin-9781490921808","title":"Dust Net: The Future of Surveillance, Privacy, and Communication: Why Drones Are Just the Beginning","description":"This is a work of nonfiction plus some speculation. It's largely about drones and their very rapid miniaturization, their present and coming use in law enforcement and war, and a potential future in which spy and communication equipment will literally be the size of dust motes, almost impossible to see and impossible to escape. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It's also about the complete lack of privacy that is coming in the future. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Parts of the book are encouraging, detailing how such devices will help rescue people after disasters, help people escape the control of repressive governments, and simply communicate more easily with one another. But most of the book is chilling indeed, portraying a future that will be very, very different from our past. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e What's really important is that this is NOT a work of science fiction. Many of the devices described here either exist already or are in the development stage. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, you need to read this book, because to know the future is to help yourself prepare for it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Dvorkin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 149092180X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781490921808\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"David Dvorkin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48518650560767,"sku":"9781490921808","price":12.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5763bc1e-3c3c-4a8e-b2e0-553829f7cd7d.jpg?v=1778735117","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dust-net-david-dvorkin-9781490921808","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
