Earth by David Brin and Ender’s Game made some predictions in this area
- eleventen 10mo agoI vaguely remember “The Nets” in Enders game but not how they functioned. What about Card’s portrayal did you find prescient?
- eucyclos 10mo agoCard's idea that everyone could publish and excellent voices would be amplified was correct in premise, though it's conclusion was completely off. Classic XKCD parodied it brilliantly IMHO: https://xkcd.com/635/ https://xkcd.com/635/
- wkat4242 10mo agoAlso William Gibson and other cyberpunk franchises. A big recurring theme is the lost fight against corporate interests. A bit worse than the state our world is in right now but certainly where we're heading.
