An all-in-one guide to understanding and managing the dark side of our digital lives.

It all started out so well: the online world began as an effective tool for communication that carried with it a great promise to level the playing field and eliminate borders. But its morphed into something totally unintended. Weve all had to endure the troll that derails a generally benign conversation  or received that scam email from a wealthy Nigerian prince  or felt the strange feeling of being watched and tracked by advertising companies as we navigate the web. Welcome to the modern internet.

These are but a few of the topics that The Dark Side of Our Digital World: And What You Can Do about It examines to get at the root causes of our current problems with information technology, social media, and problematic online behavior. The book explores the issues raised by the negative side of information technology, including surveillance and spying, declining privacy, information overload, surveillance capitalism and big data analytics, conspiracy theories and fake news, misinformation and disinformation, trolling and phishing.

Whats ultimately at stake is how we are able to cope with increasingly invasive anti-social behaviors, the overall decline of privacy in the face of total surveillance technologies, and the lack of a quality online experience that doesnt devolve into flame wars and insults. The future of the internet as well as our societies depends upon our ability to discern truth from lies and reality from propaganda. The book will therefore also examine the possible directions we could take to improve the situation, looking at solutions in the areas of psychology and behavioral conditioning, social engineering through nudging techniques, the development of e-democracy movements, and the implementation of public policy.
