Does the Internet actually inhibit rather than encourage democracy? Evgeny Morozov presents an alternative take on ‘cyber-utopianism’ – the seductive idea that the Internet plays a largely emancipatory role in global politics.

Exposing some idealistic myths about freedom and technology (during Iran’s ‘twitter revolution’ fewer than 20,000 Twitter users actually took part), Evgeny argues for some realism about the actual uses and abuses of the Internet.
