Terms of Servitude: Zionism, Silicon Valley, and Digital Settler Colonialism in the Palestinian Liberation Struggle - Pre-Order
Ships out mid August 2025!
By Omar Zahzah
Foreword by Steven Salaita
This groundbreaking book documents how Big Tech companies and platforms support the
Israeli settler colonial project, including the occupation of Palestine, through censorship.
Through original analysis and careful documentation, Omar Zahzah, Assistant Professor of Arab,
Muslim, Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies at San Francisco State University, traces the timeline
from the 2021 Sheikh Jarrah uprisings, through October 7, 2023 and the most current
developments to explain social media’s role in advancing and suppressing Palestinian
narratives.
This revealing and alarming book explores what makes anti-colonial counter-narratives across
digital platforms so urgent, and what resistance can and must mean in light of the consolidation
of Big Tech with Israeli colonialism and genocide.
Terms of Servitude is a joint production of the Censored Press and Seven Stories Press.

Advance Praise for Terms of Servitude
“As Zahzah illustrates, wherever hegemony fails, brute repression steps in. Through analysis of cyber warfare, algorithmic engineering, hasbara tactics, and the influence of tech oligarchs, Terms of Servitude helps the reader understand digital settler colonialism and how its power develops under the guise of progress and innovation.”
—Steven Salaita, Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the American University in Cairo.
