I agree. And that's just one example from the article that seems to play into what amounts to a vigorous pitch of various dark, yet still subjective, perceptions. We just don't know the future, and we have a LOT of really talented, creative people working on it right now, and most of those people work within not just one, but a variety of social frameworks that encourage or enforce ethically commendable behavior.
I also personally love it when authors / technologists / etc. put in the work to describe the tools needed to 1) put the problem into perspective and 2) create around it. Either bringing the _spirit_ forward if it's a difficult technology-arena problem, or bringing the _technology_ forward if it's a difficult social-arena problem.
- lancesells 7y agoThe article also has sharing buttons to the "closed" web most likely providing some company with information. This automatically had me question the article.
- perezbox 7y agoThose sharing links don't go to any company, they simply integrate with platforms to facilitate sharing. It's one of the few tools available to disseminate. I find it odd that sharing links made you question the article. I would personally focus on the content of the article, not the ability to share content.
- lancesells 7y agoIt might be odd but presentation does make a difference for me. Sharing buttons make me think this is content marketing of some kind.
- perezbox 7y agoYou're right, my article does lean towards a potential dark future. You're also right that it is subjective; it is, by design, an opinion piece not an academic one.
