This extraordinary book explains the engine that has catapulted the Internet from backwater to ubiquity—and reveals that it is sputtering precisely because of its runaway success. With the unwitting help of its users, the generative Internet is on a path to a lockdown, ending its cycle of innovation—and facilitating unsettling new kinds of control.

"This book is fundamental. It will define the debate about the future of the Internet, long after we haven''t stopped it. Absolutely required reading."—Lawrence Lessig, Professor, Stanford Law School, and author of Free Culture and The Future of Ideas
