Ted Kaczynski as a scholar of resistance to technology
Posted 23 Jun 2012 / 0The Chronicle of Higher Education “The Unabomber’s Pen Pal”
What I think is really interesting about Kaczynski’s critique is that he is fearlessly pointing out the problems with technology, challenging others to provide a counter-narrative. For the most part, there is no counter-narrative. You are either “with us or against us” when it comes to accepting the radical transformation of our species by technology. And the real question is how to we re-grab (or perhaps grab for the first time) the reins over technology? How do we use technology without allowing it to use us?
