Technoville, and how much fun it is. The whole point of the information age is to gather information. Governments corporations movements businesses of every type, and individuals of all varieties. All gather, and exchange information. That’s the planet now. It’s how it will be till the next great change.
Some are outraged for their info being shared. Like those back in the day that wouldn’t go to libraries. This because their reading choices would be known. Tho’ understandable both show a misunderstanding of where, and when they are. Like that printing press chaos in the 14th century.
Of course there’s info on us spread everywhere. What we do where we go our hat size, and porn choices. Commerce governance, and inter-personal relationships depends on this. It is the point of this whole era. If this troubles there’s the option to go off grid.
I have to a degree. I have no iPhone nor do I want one. I’m online which means I’m superficially connected, but even that could be let go. Life indeed can go on with out it. Literally half the planet currently does. Besides I had more fun in da 70′s printing up radical Broadsides. This like our 18th, and 19th century troublemaker ancestors did. Getting ink on ya hands makes it more fun.
