A book by McKenzie Wark.

"Frontcover of A Hacker Manifesto book.  Plain red background, black rectangle in the centre with book and author name."

1. Overview

criticizes the commodification of information in the age of digital culture and globalization

mimics the epigrammic style of Guy Debord's The Society of the Spectacle

Yeah… which on first attempt makes it hard to read for me.

Wark builds on Marx and Engels’ ideas, alongside Deleuze and Guattari, by adding two new classes of workers into the mix - the "hacker class" and the "vectoralist class".

^ Hmm keen to learn how it is building on D&G.
