About this link:
I haven't read "Move Fast and Break Things", though it's on my list, and
"Chaos Monkeys" is a very good read if one can ignore the tone of the
writer, which sometimes is a bit over the top, but I here I want to do a
small comment on the other title, "The Attention Merchants". This is
where I first became exposed on the idea of "attention as a resource
exploited by third parties". This brought me to the "right to attention"
[1] and another treatment of the same topic with a different angle, "The
World beyond your head" [2].
I'd be grateful if someone could provide more readings related to this
topic.
Thanks a million,
JMM.
