Told you guys, it's Das Kapital now...when the liberals come to take away my freedoms I need to at least know the language.
The thing is, there's a give and take relationship with modern technology, you get convenience and interconnectivity but you lose privacy and some security. For some people this is not a problem and it will not negatively effect them in their entire lives, for others it's the end of the world. I think that with every change in technology there will always be those who perceive the negative aspects of it as outweighing the positive ones.
Ultimately though time marches on and those people who you consider stupid and naive will outnumber and outlive you, and will probably consider their relative descendancy to be stupid and naive for using the technology that they do, perhaps full spectrum bio-neural connections which take you to another plane of existence mentally but come with some physical and psychological negative side-effects.
