He does reference some valid points about the "dark side" of the internet, but how he equates an ebook to that and the holocaust escapes me.
He also seems to align those who develop our technology with corporate and governmental "drones". Having worked in the high tech industry in entry level to senior executive levels I find that laughable. The computer industry contains some of the most learned people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and I'm not just talking about technology knowledge, but the knowledge that comes from reading great works, traveling and meeting people from different cultures and generally experiencing a good and diverse slice of life. I think he needs to get out from behind his keyboard a little more!
