Offers a novel solution to technology addiction through legal action to pressure the technology industry to re-design its products.
Klappentext zu „Unwired “
Instead of blaming users for technology addiction and offering self-help measures, Unwired shifts responsibility to technology companies. Through examining the battles against tobacco, junk food, and privacy, it accessibly describes the legal action we can take to pressure governments and the technology industry to re-design products and spaces.

Pressezitat
'Gaia Bernstein's Unwired offers a compelling roadmap for tackling one of our most pressing problems: the irresistible pull of technology. Over the course of our lives, we and our children will spend between fifteen and twenty years glued to our screens. As Bernstein shows, though, there are regulatory remedies at hand to help us retain our time and our wellbeing.' Adam Alter, Professor of Marketing and Psychology, NYU Stern School of Business, author of Irresistible and Drunk Tank Pink
