How information technology strengthens the reputation of power, while openness makes privacy safer.
Anonymity is no longer a reality. Any information that makes its way onto the internet is likely to remain there forever. This can be seen as a significant threat, but it can also be viewed as a tremendous opportunity. The threat does not come from computers and networks; they are merely tools, and incredibly useful and sophisticated ones at that. The real threat comes from people who misuse these tools. This book is about opportunities, not threats. It explores how a transparent world, where every step we take is recorded and analyzed, can be a great place to live. It discusses how people can collaborate and work towards common goals without creating ugly and cumbersome hierarchies, which are precisely where the conditions for the abuse of the informational power of modern technologies arise.
