The Internet of Garbage is a 2015 non-fiction book by Sarah Jeong.
Written after the concentrated harassment campaigns perpetrated against Caroline Criado Perez in 2013 and multiple other women in the Gamergate controversy in 2014, the book deals with issues of online harassment, and especially gender- and race-related harassment. The book also touches on the issues of cybercrime, content moderation and other strategies for managing interactions in online communities. Other subjects covered include free speech, behavior vs. content, doxing, and spam.
The Internet of Garbage was favorably received in the technology press. Writing for Techdirt, Mike Masnick reviewed the book as "nuanced and well worth reading".
