   "In the 2020 CBC Massey Lectures, bestselling author and renowned technology   
   and security expert Ronald J. Deibert exposes the disturbing influence and   
   impact of the internet on politics, the economy, the environment, and humanity.   
      
   "Digital technologies have given rise to a new machine-based civilization that   
   is increasingly linked to a growing number of social and political maladies.   
   Accountability is weak and insecurity is endemic, creating disturbing   
   opportunities for exploitation.    
      
   "Drawing from the cutting-edge research of the Citizen Lab, the world-renowned   
   digital security research group which he founded and directs, Ronald J. Deibert   
   exposes the impacts of this communications ecosystem on civil society. He   
   tracks a mostly unregulated surveillance industry, innovations in technologies   
   of remote control, superpower policing practices, dark PR firms, and highly   
   profitable hack-for-hire services feeding off rivers of poorly secured personal   
   data. Deibert also unearths how dependence on social media and its expanding   
   universe of consumer electronics creates immense pressure on the natural   
   environment. In order to combat authoritarian practices, environmental   
   degradation, and rampant electronic consumerism, he urges restraints on tech   
   platforms and governments to reclaim the internet for civil society.
