Hello colleagues, I hope my new book may be of interest to some on this list. Profit Over Privacy: How Surveillance Advertising Conquered the Internet <https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/profit-over-privacy> “Profit over Privacy gives internet surveillance a much-needed origin story by chronicling the development of its most important historical catalyst: web advertising. The first institutional and political history of internet advertising, it uses the 1990s as its backdrop to show how the massive data-collection infrastructure that undergirds the internet today is the result of twenty-five years of technical and political economic engineering.” You can read the introduction <https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/images/other-images/crain_intro.pdf> on the publisher site and use code MN88430 for a 40% discount.
