Cyborg and Techno Anxiety

I meet a lot of people who are very anxious about and suspicious of technology.  I was going to write a whole post about this, but I recently found a great historical survey of techno anxiety.  Right here.

The funny thing is, just as each technology has led to fear over intellectual property issues, they have also led to fears that our youth will lose the ability to think/write/communicate.  I’m thinking there is a connection.  But I don’t have time to really work it out until after the end of term.  😛
