This chapter presents the notion of the network as a template of knowing and acting up the world, and establishes the initial framework for arguing that the logic of the network is part of a capitalist order that exacerbates inequality. While the digital network increases the means of participation in society, it also increases socioeconomic inequality through strategies that include the commodification of social labor, the privatization of social spaces, and the surveillance of dissenters. These methods of capturing and measuring new kinds of social wealth are means of concealing the fact that participation in the network promotes a kind of inequality that can eventually nullify most of its benefits.
