I'd go with... > the most serious threats digital technologies pose are not strictly personal concerns like identity theft or companies’ surreptitiously listening in on conversations but the emergence of a softly deterministic techno-social order designed chiefly to produce individuals that are its willing subjects

the goal of every social order is to produce individuals that are its willing subjects, whether it does this softly or not.

  Yes. I don't know the correct terminology but to me a 'state' can be viewed as a thing that enforces a social construct on its citizens. If the citizens can openly shape and agree with the social construct, so much the better.
