“Well-timed . . . a powerful indictment of the current system.”
—Wall Street Journal“Eli Pariser is no enemy of the Internet. The
30-year-old online organizer is the former executive director and

MoveOn.org. But while Pariser understands the influence of the
Internet, he also knows the power of online search engines and
social networks to control exactly how we get information—for good
and for ill.” —TIME Magazine

personalization . . . entertaining . . . provocative.” —New York

should see.” —The Atlantic
