Subprime Attention Crisis
Book • 2020
Subprime Attention Crisis explores how the digital advertising market, which fuels the internet's free services, is plagued by fraud, inefficiency, and overvaluation, drawing parallels with the financial crises of the past.
Hwang argues that if this bubble bursts, it could lead to a significant shift in how the internet is funded and accessed.
The book proposes reforms to address these issues and ensure a more sustainable digital economy.
