The moment Steve Jobs unveiled the first iPhone in 2007, he wasn't just launching a product-he was ushering in a philosophical revolution that would transform human existence. Douglas Rushkoff's "Program or Be Programmed" arrived as an urgent warning: understand the biases of digital tools or risk being manipulated by them. Unlike many tech commentaries that quickly feel dated, Rushkoff's analysis has proven remarkably prescient, offering ten commandments for digital life that feel more relevant today than when first published. The book's central insight is deceptively simple yet profound: digital technologies aren't neutral tools. They have inherent biases that shape how we think, communicate, and live. When we use these tools without understanding their underlying logic, we surrender our agency. The question isn't whether to use technology but how to use it consciously-recognizing when it serves us and when it doesn't. As our lives become increasingly mediated through screens and algorithms, we face a fundamental choice: will we shape our tools, or will they shape us?
