Computers are not hostile. Humans are. This is just another tool in the arsenal.
- auslegung 6y agoI agree, but for sake of discussion was this state of affairs inevitable, given 1) humans are "hostile" 2) the internet was, early on, intended to be far-reaching, ie worldwide web 3) likewise computers, since their inception, were intended to become (I'm struggling with words here...) all-powerful. It seems like this trumps other "tools" in the arsenal like iron, which I'm sure when warlords found out about it started dreaming of taking over their world, but it was always going to be limited in ways the internet and computers aren't.
