Description Former insider turned critic Wendy Liu busts the myths of the tech industry, and offers a galvanising argument for why and how we must reclaim technology\'s potential for the public good. Innovation. Meritocracy. The possibility of overnight success. What\'s not to love about Silicon Valley? These days, it\'s hard to be unambiguously optimistic about the growth-at-all-costs ethos of the tech industry. Public opinion is souring in the wake of revelations about Cambridge Analytica, Theranos, and the workplace conditions of Amazon workers or Uber drivers. It\'s becoming clear that the tech industry\'s promised "innovation" is neither sustainable nor always desirable. Abolish Silicon Valley is both a heartfelt personal story about the wasteful inequality of Silicon Valley, and a rallying call to engage in the radical politics needed to upend the status quo. Going beyond the idiosyncrasies of the individual founders and companies that characterise the industry today, Wendy Liu delves into the structural factors of the economy that gave rise to Silicon Valley as we know it. Ultimately, she proposes a more radical way of developing technology, where innovation is conducted for the benefit of society at large, and not just to enrich a select few. About the Author Wendy Liu is a software engineer and former startup founder who left the tech industry to pursue a masters degree in inequality from the London School of Economics. She is currently working on a print publication devoted to tech worker organising in Silicon Valley.
