Yep. This wasn't exactly an essay, just some thoughts around a "trend" I picked up on (ie the backlash). I could write a whole separate article about the NSA but I let Carr's article speak for itself. The reason for including it was that the NSA disclosures put a different light on the tech vs society question. But yea, it could have been more developed.

Guilt by a vague association: * Some libertarians live in the Bay Area * Some people in the Bay Area worked on projects, companies and systems being exploited by the NSA * Therefore ... wait, huh?
- akristofcak 13y agoIf you read the Carr article, you might see that these associations are much less tenuous than you suggest.
