Infinite Detail by Tim Maughan
A near-future story that follows the immediate and long-term fallout after a coordinated collapse of the global digital network; as cities and economies grind to a halt, former insiders, activists and ordinary people must confront the moral and practical consequences of a world suddenly without the cloud. Moving between the lead-up to the blackout and the messy attempts to rebuild, the narrative examines power, surveillance, inequality and climate strain, asking who benefits from digital infrastructure, who pays when it fails, and whether new, less extractive communities can emerge from the ashes.
