«The Net Delusion: How Not to Liberate the World» is Evgeny Morozov's essay, published by Penguin in paperback (432 pages, in English).
Evgeny Morozov examines the relationship between the internet and political freedom and argues that believing the web liberates the world is a mirage. Morozov warns, against digital utopians, that governments also use new technologies to surveil, censor, and control, and that connectivity alone does not guarantee democracy or human rights.

A book for readers interested in the social and political impact of the internet, digital censorship, and civil rights.
