NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The internet as we know it is broken. Here’s how we can seize back control of our lives from the corporate algorithms and create a better internet—before it’s too late. “In the spirit of Thomas Paine’s Revolution-era Common Sense, this manifesto challenges us to create new digital architectures to safeguard democracy.”—Walter Isaacson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Elon Musk It was once a utopian dream. But today’s internet, despite its conveniences and connectivity, is the primary cause of a pervasive unease that has taken hold in the U.S. and other democratic societies. It’s why youth suicide rates are rising, why politics has become toxic, and why our most important institutions are faltering. Information is the lifeblood of any society, and our current system for distributing it is corrupted at its heart. Everything comes down to our ability to communicate openly and trustfully with each other. But, thanks to the dominant digital platforms and the ways they distort human behavior, we have lost that ability—while, at the same time, we’ve been robbed of the data that is rightfully ours. The roots of this crisis, argue Frank McCourt and Michael Casey, lie in the prevailing order of the internet. In plain but forceful language, the authors—a civic entrepreneur and an acclaimed journalist—show how a centralized system controlled by a small group of for-profit entities has set this catastrophe in motion and eroded our personhood. And then they describe a groundbreaking solution to reclaim it: rather than superficial, patchwork regulations, we must reimagine the very architecture of the internet. The resulting “third-generation internet” would replace the status quo with a new model marked by digital property rights, autonomy, and ownership. Inspired by historical calls to action like Thomas Paine’s Common Sense, Our Biggest Fight argues that we must act now to embed the core values of a free, democratic society in the internet of tomorrow. Do it right and we will finally, properly, unlock its immense potential.

"The Big Fight" is a war memoir by David Fallon. He was of Irish ancestry but a British soldier when WWI happened. He was first sent to Sydney to assist with enlistment, but he was flustered to enroll in the front lines, becoming an Anzac and thus a part of the catastrophic landing at Gallipoli (1915). As he describes it, the landing is like a scene from Saving Private Ryan, with Fallon's boat shelled, the men shot in the water or tangled up in a barbed-wire trap, the dead rapidly piling up on the beach, and the living bewildered and exhausted, attacked and pounded by enemy fire. As if witnessing the heaviest fighting at Gallipoli and afterward the Somme wasn't enough...

This biography of Thomas E. Ware covers (78) years of relentless struggle for achievement and success in a segregated society on the streets of Washington D.C. Starting in 1929 and ending in 2007. As his younger brother I was blessed to grow up with him and watch him skillfully work his way through numerous Jim Crow policies, educational barriers, adversity and police intimidation. (Excerpts from passages in the book) Chap. 5 During the 1930's 1201 was a land mark stop over point for family members migrating from the south. At one point I counted five families with twenty-three people living in our four bedroom home, I slept in the bathroom tub. While others slept on floor pallets. Chap.3 The highlight of our corner experience was the appearance of the local police. As they got closer to our group some one would yell "police" and we would scatter and hide. After passing us, some one would yell "all clear", and we would return. One day, Tom said we have not done anything wrong, why should we run every time we see a policeman? I'm not going to run anymore! Nervously, I sat with him. Chap. 1 When we were little guys, I remember Tom telling me "There is no Santa Claus." This is all a game, but I want my toys on Christmas Day. I said yes there is a Santa Claus, look at all the toys he brought us last year. Tom said; alright tell me how a group of reindeer can fly through the air with no engine power or wings? And how can Santa bring toys to all the kids on our block in his small sled, and how can a big fat Santa slide down our small chimney? We decided to wait up for Santa on Christmas Eve. Finally we say our parents placing toys under the tree for us. We knew then that our parents were Santa Claus. We still rejoiced on Christmas morning. I am pleased that my survival in life is attributed to the life goals that he set for himself, but I followed. His inner strength, tenacity, and visionary leadership were helpful to many people whose lives he touched. He was a courageous, remarkable man. James J. Ware Jr.

This is the first book in the series The Diary Of A Country Girl - a collection of inspirational readings designed to encourage and motivate you to walk out your purpose in Christ, by divulging certain truths, nuggets of wisdom and revelations I believe were given to me by the Holy Spirit through my own personal experiences. This book is designed to be an easy read. A quick read at lunchtime or on a bathroom break. A moment of serenity before a busy and challenging day. A breath of fresh air during the torrents of life. Each segment designed to uplift and motivate you, ending with supporting scripture and a challenge. A challenge that just might create avenues for further self-examination, devotion, decision and change. The kind of change that will allow you to feel the presence of God and desire to know Him more. If not, then I've failed miserably in what I was called to do. But still, I won't give up. I will do what I must do. So, in order to speak into your life and to encourage you, my life has to measure up. I have to be an example of what I'm saying. How can I guide you without knowing the way? How can I relate to you, to anyone, without the experience of knowing the change that is possible through God at work in my life? So, to give, I have to first receive. I cannot give anything except that which I possess. So I wait on God, and I pray, and I live expectantly. Because the revelations He gives brings life... and joy... and peace... and knowledge... and wisdom... and insight into the things that touch us the most. He is a loving God and He knows exactly what each of us needs.
