    The book offers valuable insights, but I wish it explored the ethical implications more deeply. A solid overview.

    I found the details about Gawker particularly interesting. The book could have been more concise.

    An interesting look at the early days of online media, but it felt a bit too focused on personalities and less on the broader impact. Worth a read, though.
