Analysis 4

         The relationship between societyand technology has always been a back-and-forth affair that usually entails how much power should society have in technology. This argument relies on the fact that society plays a role in protecting the public from the side-effects of technology. As expected, technology argues that it'll implement self-restriction to protect the public. Trolling, for example, falls under the category of technological tools whose side-effects may cause harm to the public. A more primary way of looking at this relationship is the effects that technology has on society directly. I came across an article last week about an anonymous person on Chatroulette that made others do things by threatening to kill an animal. This could've easily being just a practical joke, but that does nothing in diminishing its effect on society.
