Technology is breaking politics – what can be done about it?

Artificially intelligent “bot” accounts attack politicians and public figures on social media. Conspiracy theorists publish junk news sites to promote their outlandish beliefs. Campaigners create fake dating profiles to attract young voters. We live in a world of technologies that misdirect our attention, poison our political conversations, and jeopardize our democracies. With massive amounts of social media and public polling data, and in depth interviews with political consultants, bot writers, and journalists, political consultants, Philip N. Howard offers ways to take these “lie machines” apart.

Lie Machines is full of riveting behind the scenes stories from the world’s biggest and most damagingly successful misinformation initiatives—including those used in Brexit and U.S. elections. Howard not only shows how these campaigns evolved from older propaganda operations but also exposes their new powers, gives us insight into their effectiveness, and shows us how to shut them down.

打三星不是说这个研究结果做的不好，而是读起来感觉应该是六七十页的调查报告被强行注水成一本书来出版，车轱辘话来回说，我觉得更大的是出版方质控把关和编辑的问题。Yale University Press一直是我很信任的出版，无语。
