Few things militate against the Individual with the relentless focus of global information technology. Everywhere it has been employed, it has demolished hierarchies of authority, eradicated "subsidiarity" by consolidating control of anything that depends on information into fewer and larger hands. Is there anything in the material economy that doesn't depend on information?As McLuhan points out, instant, global communication renders sovereign national borders as quaint formalities, leading ultimately and inevitably to some form of virtual de facto superstate. Such an entity has the means to control people's access to, perceptions of, and uses of information, rendering them effective wards of its power, relieved of anything that can truly be called "individuality." You won't conform? Then you won't get the goodies, because your credentials will be revoked. So will be the Digital Pentecost, where a person ultimately is a source of tax revenue - a "number", if you will, to a superstate.
This is the real problem with technology. Selfies are only a distraction, proof that people's eyes are really off the ball.

WE care about ebola. Whether Obama loves America. The latest tribe of cave dwellers faking videos to bait us into war.
Who cares about the internet? Freedom is dangerous!
Pure fascism.
Bookmarked.

...a Congress that actually worked for 'us'.

“controlling your life for your own good”
