My feeling is that we've barely started to grips with any of the consequences of any of the (Silicon Valley-originated) digital services we use. Where would you even begin to study how ever present access to information has changed life for most people? Who can say which technologies (or any technologies) have led to the decades-long cratering of crime rates? Really, how has Facebook changed our lives? How has Amazon changed cities? These are almost futile questions to seriously study, and the fact that they revolve around major corporate brands means that a lot of smart people (such as the author) mostly just roll their eyes and shrug their shoulders.
