“I Hate The Internet: A Useful Novel” Book Reading | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

What if you told the truth and the whole world heard you? Would you expect to be believed? What if you lived in a country swamped with Internet outrage? What if you were a woman living in a society that hated women?

Set in the San Francisco of 2013, I Hate the Internet offers a hilarious and obscene indictment of our online lives. Tackling the pressing questions of your moment, Jarett Kobek asks: Why do you live with rank misery seeping from the world’s cellphones and computers? Why do you applaud the enrichment of tech CEOs at the expense of the weak and the powerless? Why are you giving away your intellectual property? Why is activism in the 21st Century nothing more than a series of morality lectures typed into devices built by slaves?
