Christl & Spiekermann is an excellent overview of commercial
surveillance. Another obvious reference would be:

  Zuboff, Shoshana (8 August 2017). Master Or Slave?: The Fight for
  the Soul of Our Information Civilization. ISBN 9781610395694.

Before this book appeared, the FAZ newspaper published an essay based
on it [1]. It was discussed on this list in March 2016. In it, Zuboff
coined the term “surveillance capitalism” [2].
