Have to say, if it hits some point greatly, its the one, where people becoming more a statistic value object in the higher hierarchy-steps or simple organizational posts. Was talking about that white a friend from Austria and its seems it is something like a outcome of a lack of actual inter-personal people-friendly contact, witch is reduced to simply "doing the job" and the time i have free for myself (obviously escaping that reality). While "doing the job" shifts from actual public service to highly automatized and single-job efficiency short-sighted profitable management.

They really had a deep hidden message whytein that title. A scary little world it is from this perspective. That technology has great potential in ways it can be usefully and creatively implemented in helping the lives ... doe a horrific tool, when going rouge in a society of chronical un-involvement/-interest for them.
