Pandora's Box?

"The Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had."  -Eric Schmidt

Technology is constantly evolving to create for us a newer, faster, and better way of life; at least, that's what many people have come to believe.  And there are so many different kinds of technology out there, that it becomes hard to tell how much of it we can control.  The internet, for example, is something that I believe we truly do not understand, as executive chairman of Google Eric Schmidt said.  Once you put something up on the internet, it cannot be undone.  Is this something we should be happy to have created?  We keep talking about the future; how one day we will all be implanted with chips and how our bodies and minds will be digitally engineered in a way that goes beyond what we now know.  Many people see this as innovative thought, but is it?  Have we opened a Pandora's box that cannot be taken back?  How much of this stuff is already happening right now, or may have already happened?  It might seem like a bunch of crazy ideas, but some people are undertaking these kinds of ideas and believe they will be a reality in our near future.  So how crazy is it, really?  I guess I don't know.  Throughout history, technological advancements have changed the world around us so drastically, but have not actually altered our physical being to such a large extent (some people might argue differently).  Are you nervous...?  I am.
