当第一条横越大西洋的电报电缆在1858年铺设完成后,维多利亚时代的技术狂热者宣称:“有了这样的设备,任何国家之间都可以交流思想,偏见和敌意从此不再存在。”至到今天,人们仍不断在制造新技术的迷信生物工艺学被认为可解决世界饥饿问题,人类染色体排序据称可根治癌症和其他疾病。现在,计算机已在各个领域内被广泛运用,生活也随之变得更轻松,人们对互联网这种新技术有了更多的憧憬:互联网可避免战争、减少污染、消除各种不平等。但是,近日英国著名财经杂志《经济学人》发表封面文章,对互联网对人类生活的影响做了深入分析,并发人深省地指出“虽然互联网对人类的影响尚需时间来作决断,但是把科学技术当作可包治百病的灵丹妙药注定是错误的。这种错误不是自互联网开始,也不会自互联网结束。”
When the first transatlantic telegraph cable was laid in 1858, the Victorian tech fan claimed: “With this device, ideas, prejudices and hostility can no longer exist in any country.” Until today, people are constantly superstitious biotechnology in the manufacture of new technologies is considered to solve the problem of hunger in the world, human chromosome sequencing is said to cure cancer and other diseases. Now that computers have been widely used in various fields and life has become easier, people have more hopes for the new Internet technology: the Internet can avoid war, reduce pollution and eliminate inequalities. However, recently published a cover article by The Economist, a famous British financial magazine, and conducted an in-depth analysis of the impact of the Internet on human life and thought-provokingly pointed out: “Although the impact of the Internet on humanity still takes time to make a decision, Technology as a cure for panacea is doomed to be wrong, a mistake that does not begin with the Internet or end up with the Internet. ”"
