80.) The smarter your technology is, the less control you have over it.
While
hardware defines what a technology can do, it's software defines what
it will do. Slowly but surely, that software is being designed to
resist our wishes in favor of the best interests of corporations (such
is the case with DRM), and it won't be long before it is designed to
resist competing technologies, too. As we enter the age of the Internet
of Things, we run the risk of transforming our households into either
technological battlefields or fiefdoms.
