UNSPOKEN TRUTHS: whoever controls the media, from rudimentary writings to the internet, is in control.
A TEAM from Eircom is upgrading my broadband, telephone and modem connections, binding me to Eircom for the next 18 months. I am a willing prisoner, but I rely on the promise that everything will be faster, better and cheaper. I live in hope that the technicians know what they’re about, as I certainly don’t. My ignorance is not unique, not even remarkable. It is the most reliable response to technological advance, which, since the first scratches on stone, has given political power to those who can communicate not only the most, but the fastest.
