Technical activity automatically eliminates every nontechnical activity or transforms it into technical activity. This does not mean, however, that there is any conscious effort or directive will. Jacques Ellul

Heideggar
Heideggar talks about humans and losing them to different resources. He claims that this is the greatest danger and I can see where he is coming from. Technology often leads to exploitation of human beings and we are constantly putting constraints on them. The important part of his point to me is the idea that people are constantly trying to improve what already is good and advanced. In some points this is good but in others it is not necessary. But these individuals that come up with this new technology dominate others and dominate the actual technology that is made available to the world. We have no idea what technology is actually available to everyone until it actually comes out. This is all something that we have to think about.
