Life after Google : the fall of big data and the rise of the blockchain economy Cover Image Book

Life after Google : the fall of big data and the rise of the blockchain economy / George Gilder.

Fall of big data and the rise of the blockchain economy (portion title)
Gilder, George F., 1939- (author.).

Summary:

Google's ability to "search and sort" attracts the entire world to its search engine and countless other goodies-- videos, maps, email, calendars. Everything it offers is free ... or so it seems. Instead of paying directly, users submit to advertising. The Internet firewalls supposedly protecting all our passwords and personal information have proved hopelessly permeable. The future lies with the "cryptocosm": the new architecture of the blockchain and its derivatives. Gilder explains why Silicon Valley is suffering a nervous breakdown and what to expect as the post-Google age dawns. -- adapted from jacket.
