The Hand Behind The Web

The book global elites hope you never read.

A forensic exposé of the 21st-century control architecture—how governments, corporations, and AI networks quietly merged to manage humanity itself.

The Hand Behind the Web traces how post-war systems theory, cybernetics, and global finance evolved into today’s surveillance-governance complex. From RAND to WEF, from Palantir to the BIS, Thom Aster reveals how “Order > Freedom” became the operating code of modern civilization—and where the fractures in that system lie.

You’ll learn:
• How technocrats replaced politicians in real decision-making
• How global institutions launder policy through “international standards”
• How private contractors built the surveillance state for profit
• And where individuals can still carve out low-tech freedom zones

For readers of Zuboff, Klein, Parenti, and Orwell—this is the missing link between power and code.
