can anyone reccomend me essays or books on the culture of or the effects of technology and the internet /social media age?

i really enjyoed parts of dfw's e unibus pluram analyzing the culture of the 1990's, the use of irony in popular culture, and the effects of television on the masses - but i'm interested in somehting more contemporary, and more pointedly critical. dfw's essay is pretty free form and its attention is divided between culture and US fiction

already read ellul and zerzan too

I know a certain Byung-Chul Han has written some stuff related to this, but it might be crap.

The Shallows by Nicholas Carr. It's journalistic, not properly academic, but I still found it a good read on the subject

It doesn't seem to be in English, only German.
