I'm posting a link to a documentary.
All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace:

If you get a free couple of hours, check it out.
Description below:
A series of films about how humans have been colonized by the machines they have built. Although we don’t realize it, the way we see everything in the world today is through the eyes of the computers. It claims that computers have failed to liberate us and instead have distorted and simplified our view of the world around us.
CooKoo!!! Computers were supposed to liberate us?!?!? LMAO!!! I thought they were to facebook... Great... I can see what kind of movement this is going to be - a Dazed and Confused one. UGH
I'm guessing you didn't look at the documentary at all, so there's nothing to argue here. Thanks for the assessment based on nothing.
Relevancy?
It's a critique of Ayn Rand, ecological studies, and cybernetics. If any of those three subjects interest you, check it out.
"I want to be a machine..." Andy and Mr. Foxx.
