Description
This audio-friendly guide explores the invisible systems that make today’s digital life possible: how data travels across the internet, why smartphones became “magical” so quickly, how algorithms shape what we watch and listen to, and why personal data has become one of the world’s most valuable resources.
Along the way, it also visits the deep web and dark web—what they are, why they exist, and how the same tools can support both harm and helpful work. It closes with a thoughtful look at robots and automation, offering a balanced view of fear and possibility, and ending with a few practical habits that can make everyday technology use safer and more intentional.
