Techno-Feudalism: A Modern Crisis
This chapter examines the rise of techno-feudalism, drawing parallels between contemporary society and medieval systems of oppression, where individuals become digital serfs under corporate and governmental control. It urges for grassroots democratic action and solutions like breaking tech monopolies and protecting digital rights to combat threats to free speech and human autonomy. The discussion emphasizes the urgent need for collective resistance against overwhelming technological dominion, likening these challenges to historical narratives and warning of an imminent crisis in human essence.
