Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or privacy:
“If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor.

—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
“The privacy of reading frees us to entertain the alien.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
