Tech companies increasingly determine who regulates and who governs. Tech billionaire cronies dominate in the Trump administration, and many policies seem tailor-made for the benefit of the crypto industry and AI startups. President Trump meanwhile translates the Silicon Valley reactionaries' "anti-woke" politics directly into executive orders. These are the people now in power. But what does power mean to them?
This incisive book explores which ideas of politics, power, and dominance characterize the tech industry, and how those ideas came to be. Taking readers from investor meetings to doom bunkers, from science fiction books to fertility clinics, and from lecture halls to S&M dungeons, Adrian Daub acerbically explores how these corporations and their leaders think they came to dominate, and why they deserve to. Do our rulers understand what it means to rule?
