Why Chosen

I chose The Age of Surveillance Capitalism because my research focuses on how social media and emerging technologies shape society and democracy. Zuboff's book captures the profound ways that digital platforms collect and use data, often in ways that undermine trust, autonomy, and civic life. It reflects my scholarly interest in examining the democratic consequences of technology, and it aligns with my teaching commitment to preparing students with the media and data literacy skills they need to navigate - and challenge - the influence of these systems.
