Our faith in technology is so widespread that we feel we must be always available, always connected. Technology demands our attention.

Our faith in technology is so passionate that we rarely question the wisdom of our embrace. We text now, worry later. Our embrace of technology is so boundless that we have poured staggering riches on those who brought us these magic devices.
