Taking Its Toll

How Big Tech Is Squeezing Our Livelihoods
Big Tech has rebuilt the economy so you rent everything-your car, software, music, films. You also work for free, scanning your own shopping. This data-driven expose calculates the invisible tax squeezing households, coining "usurocratic capitalism." Essential for anyone feeling the pinch.
An eye-opening exposé on Big Tech's business—and the "usurocracy" behind it, a new predatory form of capitalism. You no longer own your car, your software, your music, your films—you rent them, forever. Big Tech is quietly colluding to rebuild the economy so that you keep paying, month after month, for things you used to own. When you try to dodge the fees, you pay in time instead: scanning your own shopping, booking your own appointments, arguing with chatbots, doing the unpaid work companies once paid people to do. This ground-breaking book makes the invisible tax visible—extracted from us, every single day, for the benefit of the few. Essential reading for those who want to understand the barriers that are encircling the world today.
