From my understanding technological advancements are no
longer in the process of making progress however has become self-sustaining
which makes us no longer in direct control over the devices. The systems
created run all by themselves for example the internet is a self-sufficient
program of which we are responsible for. When new information is uploaded on
the internet there is no way of controlling the spreading of that information whether
it is text or image. The article also speaks of antagonists ‘the ghost’ that
come another dimension and kills you through the use of technology. This could
mean that we are killing ourselves with the use of technology being the focus.
Capitalists are compared to as the ‘ghosts’ who has the ability to send
technology out of control with them having to take the blame. Konik has also
highlighted that the technology of today holds a strong hold on consumers. Contemporary
culture finds depending on these technological devices for example many people
believe that they would know what to do if they were not to have any technology
around them.
