Do E-Books Threaten Democracy?
eBooks are on trial once again. This time, they represent nothing short of an existential threat to democracy itself. In the prosecutor?s corner we have novelist Jonathan Franzen, playing the role of ?bookservative? and decrying the rise of these anti-democratic digital tomes. ?Maybe nobody will care about printed books 50 years from now, but I ...
