So I just finished Island in the Net and I’m not sure that I got the propos

Is it a tale against globalization? Is Rizome was the bad guy all along? Am I not old enough to understand a 88 book ?

If you don’t get any answers here, maybe you can try the cyberpunk lemmy to see if anyone there has read the book.
