The Internet Con: How To Seize the Means of Computation is a 2023 work of technology journalism and political argument by Cory Doctorow. It examines the concentration of power in major digital platforms and the systems that make departure costly for users, creators, customers, and communities. Doctorow challenges the familiar account in which dominant firms won primarily through superior innovation. Instead, he emphasizes lock-in: corporate practices, technical restrictions, and legal rules that prevent people from modifying devices, connecting services, or taking relationships and audiences elsewhere. The book is organized around a forceful remedy, interoperability. In Doctorow’s usage, this means making technologies able to work with one another, so that users can choose compatible alternatives without abandoning their contacts, data, or tools. Its purpose is not merely to diagnose surveillance and market concentration, but to offer a policy-oriented account of how those conditions could be changed. Written for general readers as well as people engaged with technology policy, it combines advocacy with accessible discussion of law, business incentives, and digital infrastructure.
