520 8 _aAstra Taylor challenges cherished notions of the internet as the great leveler of our age. The internet has been hailed as an unprecedented democratising force, a place where everyone can participate. But how true is this? Dismantling the techno-utopian vision, she argues that for all our 'tweeting' and 'sharing,' the internet in fact reflects and amplifies real-world inequities as much as it ameliorates them.
