The Captured Internet

Personal Data, Algorithmic Power, and the Coming Constitutional Crisis

Imagine an Internet that works flawlessly while becoming less worth entering: abundant synthetic content, invisible ranking, captive communities, and identities that cannot leave their providers. Trace how genuine conveniences became private constitutions, then consider what it would take to make digital power divided, replaceable, and answerable again.
