The crux of the relation between technology and labour is the process of automation. Autor and Adams argue that in the 1970s people were panicked about the job loss and other effects expected of automation. But here the author, Virginia Eubank’s gives a chilling account of how technology along with its high tech tools are profiling, policing and perpetuating inequality upon working class and poor. This books helped me to understand. The greater implications of technology in and outside of work life of a wage earner. The effects of automation, technological monitoring, disciplining, and subordination is not only at a factory, industry or corporate cabin but also in the daily routine. the author’s reasonable fear about will not only makes people jobless but also makes them insecure about their every other aspect of life such as health, wellbeing etc.
