Drawing on his experience as a cofounder of NewsGuard and a longtime media observer, Brill examines how social media, search, programmatic advertising, political propaganda, and online business models have combined to amplify misinformation and erode trust in institutions, expertise, and journalism. The book is less a general history of the internet than a critique of the systems that reward attention over accuracy. It argues that the crisis of truth is not accidental: it is built into the incentives of platforms, advertisers, and political actors who profit from division. Brill also turns toward possible remedies, asking what kinds of legal, educational, and civic reforms might restore a healthier information environment.
