The Disinformation Company has just published a couple of books that sound excellent. One is called Who's Watching You?: The Chilling Truth About The State, Surveillance, and Personal Freedom, and the other is called Who Really Runs the World? The War Between Globalization and Democracy.
Who's Watching You?: The Chilling Truth About The State, Surveillance, and Personal Freedom
Like a scene out of the hit series 24, the government has used the threat of terrorism and the corresponding climate of fear to erode our freedoms; we no longer have the ability to live our lives away from the prying eyes of hidden cameras. Our government is truly tightening its grip on us by watching and recording nearly everything we do. They do this because they know they can and because knowledge is power. But exactly who are "they" and why do they want to know so much about us?
Who's Watching You? includes chilling, accurate and up-to-date descriptions of the methods the government (and private company proxies) uses to watch us. Essential reading for everyone concerned about privacy and freedoms of speech and association, even–perhaps especially–if you don't plan on doing anything wrong.
Who Really Runs the World: The War Between Globalization and Democracy
The world is a mess. It's constantly at war, things cost too much and the average person struggles to survive against powers it can barely see, let alone control. It appears so at odds with common sense, in fact, that it begs a fundamental question: Who really runs the world?
Who Really Runs The World?looks at the conspiracies in everyday life, both hidden and not-so-hidden. It examines actual people, businesses, social networks, corporate alliances and the dark forces of conspiracy and secret history that hold them together. Writing soberly and with authority, the authors address myriad conspiracy theories with open minds. The conclusions they reach may shock and scandalize some people–especially those who fervently believe in democracy–but will fascinate everyone.
