Юлия Авилкина - Survivors Bias

In a world where "digital hygiene" is law, Elena is a brilliant coder hiding behind a false identity. She is the true mastermind behind the flawless facade of Clara Vances empire—an internet icon preaching the gospel of perfect living. But Elena knows the dark truth: Clara is a ruthless manipulator who wipes anyone deemed "inconvenient" straight out of reality. When Claras algorithm destroys the life of the only person Elena ever cared about, she launches a covert operation to dismantle the empire from within. Allied with a handful of outcasts who fell victim to the digital dictatorship, Elena prepares to strike just as the global "Balance 2.0" project launches. But as the line between human conscience and cold code blurs, she faces a dangerous question: can she destroy the system without becoming its next incarnation? This gripping psychological thriller explores the price of freedom in an era of total surveillance, and how far someone will go to reclaim control over their own life.
