Lucifer 2.0: When algorithms unleash the Web demons (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798378990030)

Like everyone else, you get informed on the Internet, a global medium that has become unavoidable. It is an extension of the traditional media called mainstream for some or an alternative to the quest for informational diversity for others. One thing is sure, the speed of propagation of news on the Web, reaching millions of people in real time, makes it a source of choice for the majority of us.
But beyond the sometimes-excessive amount of time we spend on the Web, what exactly do we find there? Are we safe from propaganda and fake news? From mind manipulations? And what about algorithms in all this? Are there any consequences of this on our everyday life? The answers to these and many other important questions are given in this book.
Crises in general are a fertile ground for manipulations of all kinds. The coronavirus crisis was undoubtedly a tipping point, as emotions were used as a lever to trigger irrational behavior in the masses. With solid studies and sources to back it up, this book will upset the reader, but will give him/her the strength, just as it did for the author, to free him/herself from the clutches of a new kind of devil.
Take back your freedom. Be free, be the author, the true author, of your own story.
