“Imagine this situation where we have the huge electronic intercommunication so that everybody is in touch with everybody else in such a way that it reveals their inmost thoughts, and there is no longer any individuality. No privacy. Everything you are, everything you think, is revealed to everyone.”

- “Future of Communications” Alan Watts
