1. Google's vision of the future
This editorial critiques Google and the monopoly they have created, they make us feel like it's progress and ask everything about your life and people simply goes along with it. Right now they know EVERYTHING about everyones life just at the click of a button, from your work to your health and finances, literally EVERYTHING about you. The problem the author is presenting is that, if they know all of this right now imagine what they will know or do twenty years from now; and the bigger problem is that we provide them with all types of information without questioning it. The author stablish that we just go along and as everyone joins this movement of being complacent, Google's power grows and "getting corrupted by power is so American", but then again it's not like you a have a choice cause that's the "future" and you don't want to be left behind. Right now we are "technology based" in everything we do... it's what we call progress! In other words... it says that "progress" and technology can/will destroy us, and we will not be able to control it because the only ones that will can are the ones we gave the power to do so.
