"I work my way through this every so often, it's great reading material but the print is very small so reading is actually a challenge. The illustrations are useful but it must have been done on a low budget as they all b/w prints that are a bit blurry and not very big either. Still, the actual content is fantastic and I hope the author can get it re-printed in a slightly better more reader-friendly version." Jan 16, 2026 04:33AM

John Naughton
“Of the top twenty sites in the world, all but three were owned by US-based companies.”
John Naughton, From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg: What You Really Need to Know about the Internet

John Naughton
“Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, in a speech to Cambridge students in March 2011, it is also the greatest spying machine the world has ever seen. It is not a technology that favours freedom of speech. It is not a technology that favours human rights. It is not a technology that favours civil life. Rather it is a technology that can be used to set up a totalitarian spying regime, the likes of which we have never seen.”
John Naughton, From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg: What You Really Need to Know about the Internet

John Naughton
“Internet is special because it’s a powerful enabler of disruptive innovation – defined as ‘a process by which a product or service takes root initially in simple applications at the bottom of a market and then relentlessly moves ‘up market’, eventually displacing established competitors’.”
John Naughton, From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg: What You Really Need to Know about the Internet

Brian K. Vaughan
“Anyone who thinks one book has all the answers hasn't read enough books.”
Brian K. Vaughan, Saga, Volume 6

John Naughton
“Now, a decade and a half later, after re-reading Orwell and Huxley, we need to ask ourselves a tough question: is the Internet really unique in being immune to censorship or control?”
John Naughton, From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg: What You Really Need to Know about the Internet
