For an interesting perspective on information as power and a great read
try a new book by Marge Piercy HE, SHE, AND IT
This is fiction, but it and scifi. It deals with a post environmental/
nuclear disaster Earth and the different information multicorporations
that have evolved to take over the planet. Information is definitely power
in this novel and the different info corporations that have taken over
are continuosly raiding each others databases and constructing
elaborate fake databases to thwart information pirates. Take a look
at it--it may not be exactly what you were looking for, but it is
worth reading!!
