  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Confront the death of privacy in the digital age and understand how your personal information has become a commodity traded without your meaningful consent or awareness. This alarming audiobook reveals the extent of surveillance capitalism, government monitoring, and data harvesting that makes genuine privacy effectively impossible for ordinary people today. Learn how smartphones, smart devices, social media platforms, and digital services collect intimate details about your behavior, relationships, health, and psychology around the clock. The narrator exposes the data broker industry that compiles comprehensive profiles on every individual, selling information to anyone willing to pay without notification or permission. Discover how surveillance infrastructure originally built for security became commercial exploitation apparatus with minimal regulatory constraint. Understand why privacy policies you never read actually authorize almost unlimited data collection and sharing while creating illusion of protection. This audiobook examines the psychological effects of surveillance on behavior, thought, and self-expression even when people believe they have nothing to hide. Learn what privacy researchers, former tech employees, and digital rights advocates understand about the true cost of convenience that trades personal information for services. Perfect for anyone using digital technology who wants to understand what they are actually exchanging and what limited options remain for those seeking to preserve any privacy in the surveillance age.

  Of all the creatures of the deep blue, none is as captivating as the octopus. In Many Things Under a Rock, marine biologist David Scheel investigates four major mysteries about these elusive beings. How can we study an animal with perfect camouflage and secretive habitats? How does a soft and boneless creature defeat sharks and eels, while thriving as a predator of the most heavily armored animals in the sea? How do octopus bodies work? And how does a solitary animal form friendships, entice mates, and outwit rivals? 
   
   
   
  Over the course of his twenty-five years studying octopuses, Scheel has witnessed a sea change in what we know and are able to discover about octopus physiology and behavior—even an octopus's inner life. Here he explores amazing new scientific developments, weaving accounts of his own research, and surprising encounters, with stories and legends of Indigenous peoples that illuminate our relationship with these creatures across centuries. In doing so, he reveals a deep affinity between humans and even the most unusual and unique undersea dwellers. 
   
   
   
  Octopuses are complex, emotional, and cognitive beings. This is the story of what we have learned and what we are still learning about the natural history and wondrous lives of these animals with whom we share our blue planet.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. She built the most advanced robotic dog in the world. 
  Now a powerful corporation will do anything to take him. 
   
  Amie Mercer is a brilliant robotics engineer who has spent years hiding her greatest creation in plain sight. 
   
  To everyone watching, Kilo is an impressive but awkward machine. He trips over rugs, bumps into walls, struggles with doorways, and behaves like an unfinished personal project. It is all an act. 
   
  Behind Kilo’s amber eyes is an intelligence capable of learning, adapting, planning, and protecting. He watches Amie’s home. He studies the people around her. He recognizes threats before they make their move. When nobody else is watching, the clumsy robotic dog disappears and something far more advanced takes his place. 
   
  Then a video exposes what Kilo can really do. Nexora Dynamics sees the discovery of a lifetime. An artificial intelligence worth millions. A machine that could transform robotics, security, and warfare. They also believe it belongs to them. 
   
  The pressure begins inside conference rooms. Then come the threats, surveillance, lawyers, break ins, and hired specialists sent to Amie’s home. Nexora wants the technology. They want the code. They want Kilo. But they have made one dangerous mistake. They think Kilo is property. Amie knows he is family. And Kilo has been watching every move they make. 
   
  As Nexora closes in, Amie must risk her career, her freedom, and everything she has built to protect the one intelligence that would do anything to protect her. 
   
  PROJECT K1L0 is a cinematic science fiction thriller filled with artificial intelligence, corporate conspiracy, courtroom warfare, dangerous technology, sharp humor, and the bond between a gifted engineer and the machine that became something more. 
   
  They came to take her invention. 
   
  They never considered that the invention might fight back.

  We Are All Whalers - The Plight...

  Michael J. Moore

  Relating his experiences caring for endangered whales, a veterinarian and marine scientist shows we can all share in the salvation of these imperiled animals. 
  The image most of us have of whalers includes harpoons and intentional trauma. Yet eating commercially caught seafood leads to whales’ entanglement and slow death in rope and nets, and the global shipping routes that bring us readily available goods often lead to death by collision. We—all of us—are whalers, marine scientist and veterinarian Michael J. Moore contends. But we do not have to be. 
  Drawing on over forty years of fieldwork with humpback, pilot, fin, and, in particular, North Atlantic right whales—a species whose population has declined more than 20 percent since 2017—Moore takes us with him as he performs whale necropsies on animals stranded on beaches, in his independent research alongside whalers using explosive harpoons, and as he tracks injured whales to deliver sedatives. The whales’ plight is a complex, confounding, and disturbing one. We learn of existing but poorly enforced conservation laws and of perennial (and often failed) efforts to balance the push for fisheries profit versus the protection of endangered species caught by accident. 
  But despite these challenges, Moore’s tale is an optimistic one. He shows us how technologies for ropeless fishing and the acoustic tracking of whale migrations make a dramatic difference. And he looks ahead with hope as our growing understanding of these extraordinary creatures fuels an ever-stronger drive for change.
