It’s fun to read all about Musk’s slow motion train wreck of a purchase (rip twitter) but on the other hand (and it pains me to admit this), the authors’ not-so-subtle anti-musk bias leads them to gloss over technical details that would’ve added fascinating color to the story.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
