Technology itself has an emergent will that is independent of humans who create and operate it. A global technological system is not subject to rational human control.
Please see the book Technological Slavery by Dr. David Skrbina and the books of Jacques Ellul on this matter.
- qpooqpoo 3y agoThe book Technological Slavery is not "by" David Skrbina. It is by Theodore Kaczynski. Skrbina just wrote the "afterward" in that book.
- Aerbil313 3y agoRight, I thought the attribution was to him, since afaik he compiled Ted's writings.
- qpooqpoo 3y agoNo, Kaczynski compiled his own writings. He also wrote a second book, Anti-Tech Revolution. In Kacynski's latest edition of Technological Slavery Skrbina's introduction doesn't even appear. It was a shitty introduction anyway.
