Liberated by technology, again

Original: Liberated by technology (again)

The Financial Times is running a piece arguing that technology is once again being framed as a force of liberation, revisiting a familiar claim about new tools freeing people from old constraints. The argument echoes earlier waves of techno-optimism, from the personal computer to the internet, and invites skepticism about whether current technologies will deliver freedom or new forms of dependence.

Why now: Renewed public debate over whether emerging technologies genuinely liberate people or entrench control.
