Do you feel like apps are controlling your time, your emotions—or your love life?
You're not alone. Millions of people spend hours swiping, scrolling, and searching... only to feel more confused, more tired, and more alone.

Why does it feel like the apps that should help us connect are doing the opposite?

Swiped helps you understand the truth. It shows how big internet companies like Tinder, Facebook, Snapchat, and Google built their empires—not by helping people—but by using your attention, your feelings, and even your loneliness to make billions.

Inside this book, you'll learn:

  • Why dating apps don't want you to find real love
  • How your data and emotions are turned into profit
  • What caused the rise and fall of internet giants like MySpace and Google+
  • How apps are designed to keep you hooked—and paying
  • Why content theft and manipulation are rewarded on platforms like Snapchat Spotlight
  • Swiped tells true stories in simple language. You'll see how these internet empires really work—and how to take back your power.

    If you've ever felt like your time and attention are being used without your control—this book is for you.
