I'm a devoted listener to the author's radio show, (and the radio station it's broadcast on. Anyone in the NYC metro area should check out WFMU!)
It's hard to find tech industry criticism that's reasoned and fair. I was very disappointed when I read some of Jaron Lanier's books, for instance, because I thought some of his arguments were too hypothetical / abstract. Evgeny Morowzov's books had better arguments, but the tone was so cynical, and he spends little time proposing solutions. Mark Hurst's techtonic show spends time looking at the good and bad of technology, and I'm constantly having my views challenged.
