š The UX Book Club Book š So You've Been Publicly Shamed
Details
š Join the August virtual meetup on Tuesday 23rd @ 8am Dublin / 5pm Melbourne. Exploring the phenomenon of public shaming, Jon Ronson's So You've Been Publicly Shamed is as relevant today as it was when it was published in 2015. He meets famous shamers and shamees, learning how quickly how our collective fury is vented online and the devastating aftermath and consequences for its victims.
A humourous, fascinating read for anyone interested in modern life and technology :)
