In this provocative analysis, economist Yanis Varoufakis argues that capitalism has ended, giving way to a new system he terms "techno-feudalism." Dominated by tech giants like Google and Apple, these digital lords control vast platforms, extracting rents from users who have unwittingly become modern-day serfs. Varoufakis explores how these corporations have enclosed the once-open internet, transforming it into territories where users' free labor enhances the platforms' value. He challenges readers to recognize this shift and consider pathways to reclaim autonomy in the digital age.
