COMMENT POSTED TO A REVIEW OF HOMO DEUS IN THE GUARDIAN
Human freedom will be a meaningless concept within a
century.
We are all being reduced by government to a herd, each
member branded and measured and with our movements closely followed.
It is not our machines alone responsible, but it is the
establishment which controls the machines and sets their tasks.
George Orwell's 1984 is going to seem kind of silly within a
century.
